The Vertical Burn System utilizes a strong spring which compresses the wood into a tight bundle as it burns.

 As the tinder burns, hot rising air causes a draft effect.

The bundle burns from the inside-out and is shielded

The Constant Force Compression Band is constructed from stainless steel for repeated use and long life.

A Vertical Burn System campfire is nearly maintenance free and will burn for hours without need for attention. It offers maximum burn time with minimum amount of wood.

The Vertical Burn bundle is stable. Cooking pots can be placed directly on top. No need to carry a separate stove on the trail!

The reusable Constant Force Compression Band is light weight and easily stored in pack or pocket.

Note: For sustained combustion, large pieces of wood must be maintained in close contact with hot coals. The Vertical Burn constant force compression band utilizes a strong spring, constantly squeezing the wood together as it burns and is consumed. Without this compression aspect, the pieces would quickly fall apart and the fire would go out.
