Extracted from Iceland’s Mount Hekla volcano, Earthcore’s products are made from genuine volcanic pumice. Pumice stone forms underneath volcanic molten lava as water and gasses escape while cooling. Earthcore has exclusive rights to mine this high-grade material from a 25-mile long volcanic fissure and the volcano itself, which rises to a height of 5,000 feet. Believed to be about 7,000 years old, Mt. Hekla, and other central volcanoes like it, can remain active for around 100,000 years. With durability like that, it’s no wonder our fireplaces are guaranteed for life

Pumice is a natural insulator. This is the unique characteristic that separates Isokern from all other chimney and fireplace manufacturers. The insulating properties of our pumice allow Isokern fireplaces to reflect heat into the room while preventing heat to escape through the material. Our chimney systems allow flue gasses to heat faster, burn cleaner, creating better performance
