Proud to be Irish

At Zip, we are proud of our Irish heritage and Irish home. Our complete range of traditional firelighters are made at our factory in Castlebellingham, Co Louth, where we employ 120 people and where approximately 90% of all our raw materials are sourced from Irish suppliers.

Our Croi Na Tine firelog is the only firelog made in Ireland, made from home grown coppice willow, sourced from local Irish farms. A further 8 jobs are anticipated to be created as the Croi na Tine log is launched in other European markets.
