What we do
Imagine being able to help 2.6 billion people!
Help us transform waste into life-saving and life-changing heat-retentive cook bags!
Join us in helping 2.6 billion people on our planet to cook clean!
Today every third person on the planet cooks over an open fire to make their daily meal. This cooking is all consumptive and massively dangerous. At Eternal Flame Worldwide Ltd, we are working with communities across the globe to turn local waste into Eco Cook Bags.
How does it work?
The bags work through heat retention, and they work tremendously well. You prepare and boil your food as normal, but then once the food, the pan and the pan lid are piping hot, you place it into the insulated bag and then lock in heat!
The food then cooks at a very high temperature for hours – for free and without you! What's more, we are making the bags ethically, socially and locally, and every employee benefits from the sale of the product!
The Eco Cook Bag
Eternal Flame's Eco Cook Bag is a 100% natural fibre “slow cooker” that reduces the cooking time over an open fire down to ninety minutes a day, saving lives, reducing deforestation, reducing trips to the well, locking in carbon, and most importantly, the bag is changing lives by freeing up time to allow women in emerging markets enter education, work, earn money, take up a hobby or simply spend more time with their family.
Our aim
We aim to make millions of organic thermal cook bags that cook food once heated.
These bags will be made in the community using locally sourced materials and employing local people and will be biodegradable at end of life.
We aim to save lives, eyesight, and lungs one bag at a time.
Our NGO network
We are activating these bags through extensive NGO networks by training the trainers thus ensuring the benefits of these cook bags are fully understood and utilised. Our NGO partners are also subsiding the purchase price of the bags to those end users that are not cash-rich, thus making these bags financially accessible to all.
The immediate future sees us prioritising our production in Tanzania and in Lesotho where fabrication is taking place within an off-grid solar-powered eco-lodge – Malealea Lodge.
We are also forging more relationships with like-minded NGOs that wish to join us on this journey.
Currently, we are approaching people and companies that share our vision of growth through socially orientated business with environmental stewardship at its heart.
