How to use it at home
Light it in a chimney starter with a wood wool firelighter and give it about 20 minutes. The big pieces are made for kamados and long indirect cooks; for the longest sessions, light it together with HazelHex briquettes.
In restaurant service
Most kitchens run HazelHex briquettes as the powerbase for long, stable heat, with holm oak lit together with it for extra heat and Iberian wood character. Expect roughly one refuel per 8-hour asado service. Work out weekly bags with the charcoal per cover calculator, or see Hospitality for supply. Running a Josper? See how much charcoal a Josper uses.
Sourcing and packaging
Our holm oak comes from an FSC-certified supplier of charcoal in Badajoz. Globaltic's own chain-of-custody certification is in progress, so the FSC logo is not on the bag yet. It is the only charcoal we pack in plastic: a 15kg recycled plastic bag, built to survive kitchen and garden life.

Payment
Payment security is a critical aspect of running an online store, as it ensures that customers' sensitive information is protected during transactions. One widely recognized standard for payment security is the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
Globalticltd.co.uk, an online store, has implemented PCI DSS as a means of ensuring payment security. This means that the company has implemented a set of security requirements that apply to all merchants who accept credit card payments.
PCI DSS requirements include measures such as maintaining secure networks, encrypting data, and implementing access controls. For example, Globalticltd.co.uk would need to use strong encryption when transmitting sensitive data such as credit card numbers over the internet, and ensure that only authorized individuals have access to customer data.
By using PCI DSS, Globalticltd.co.uk is able to assure its customers that their payment information is being handled securely. Additionally, the company is able to protect itself from potential financial and reputational damage that could result from a data breach or other security incident.
Overall, payment security is crucial for any online store, and PCI DSS provides a standardized framework for ensuring that customers' sensitive information is protected. Globalticltd.co.uk's use of this standard is a strong indication of its commitment to ensuring a safe and secure shopping experience for its customers.
