What is Eco-Friendly Camping?

Eco-friendly camping aims to nurture, not harm, natural spaces. It means choosing low-impact gear and practices. For example, not littering, guarding vegetation from damage, and avoiding loud generators. The goal? Leave no trace of your stay, so others enjoy unspoiled surroundings.

Done right, green camping has many upsides. It protects habitats for wildlife to thrive. Preserve clean water and soil. And ensures our children inherit a vibrant planet.

BioLite is a leader in eco-gear. Their smokeless fire pits, solar lanterns, and more boost comfort while treading lightly.

Here in the UK, Aim Outdoors proudly supplies its products to forward-thinking campers. Gear that makes eco-adventures a breeze.

BioLite Products You’ll Need For Your Next Camping Adventure

BioLite FirePit+

A warm campfire brings people together, but traditional pits generate a lot of smoke and require chopping firewood. The BioLite FirePit+ provides an eco-friendly alternative.

The sleek steel design burns wood cleanly and efficiently thanks to built-in fans that stoke the flames with the perfect amount of oxygen. It cuts smoke by up to 90% compared to an open fire. You’ll stay warmer while keeping the air crisp and clear.

The FirePit+ also reduces the need to gather excess firewood. Its 12,800mAh integrated battery powers a fan to optimise the burn. A little fuel goes a long way, minimising your impact on the surrounding forest.

Thanks to folding stainless legs and an optional carry case, this fire pit transports easily from backyard gatherings out to remote campsites wherever your adventures take you.

BioLite HeadLamp 200

Having lights go dead when you need them most is one headache every camper wants to avoid. The BioLite HeadLamp 200 keeps shining brightly without disposable batteries that get tossed when drained.

This lightweight headlamp packs 200 lumens in its highest white light mode—perfect for hiking trails or setting up tents after dark. For close-up tasks, choose dimmed white or red light settings. The panel tilts 70 degrees so you can direct the beam precisely where you want it most.

Fully charging this USB headlamp before your trip should keep it shining for up to 40 hours. That amount of runtime makes packing extra AAA batteries unnecessary, reducing waste.

Thanks to an integrated rechargeable 3200mah battery, the AlpenGlow runs for up to 200 hours on low. Now you can responsibly light up several nights on the trail without worrying about running out of fuel or contributing to battery waste.

BioLite AlpenGlow Lantern 250

Once at your remote campsite, the BioLite AlpenGlow Lantern 250 provides effortless site illumination all night long. It gives off up to 250 lumens of light on high – enough for hanging out in groups or finding your way around tents after sunset.

The versatile lantern also features adjustable colour modes and dimming so you can set the perfect mood lighting. Its ambient candle flicker is great for creating a soothing ambience and winding down in the evenings. The ChromaReal LEDs produce stunning colour accuracy too.

Thanks to an integrated rechargeable battery, the AlpenGlow runs for up to 200 hours on low. Now you can responsibly light up several nights on the trail without worrying about running out of fuel or contributing to battery waste.

BioLite Power Bank

These days most campers carry electronic gadgets like phones for navigation and cameras to document adventures. The BioLite Power Bank lets you keep devices powered up by storing energy straight from the sun.

Available in three sizes – 5,000mAh, 10,000mAh, or 20,000mAh – you can select a solar-rechargeable model with enough capacity to liberally charge everything from smartphones to laptops without restricting usage.

The Power Bank models also utilise the latest efficiency standards that minimise energy lost during transfers. That means more stored power makes it directly to your tech when you need it rather than getting wasted along the way.

So you can confidently carry your essential electronics without worrying about running out of power or cluttering your pack with single-use batteries destined for the landfill.
