As many as 14 million refugees and up to 25 million internally displaced persons live in temporary shelters throughout the world, and the numbers keep growing. These people often use ineffective woodstoves or build campfires to cook food, which may cause severe problems.

• Too much gathering of wood threatens the environment.
• Women and girls expose themselves to danger and violence because they have  to leave camps and travel many miles in search of firewood.
• Inefficient stove releases heavy smoke containing large amounts of toxic pollutants such as carbon monoxide

Effective deployment of aid by humanitarian organizations is crucial for providing basic needs, such as shelter, food, water, sanitation, and health care, to these people. The SolHuma Vital Stove can help. It provides a unique solution to logistical and environmental problems commonly encountered by humanitarian organizations.

• The Vital Stove is specially designed as a compact, lightweight, fold-down, pocket-sized device, making it portable during any kind of situation and by any means of transport, including planes.
• Any dry biological material can be used as a source of fuel for the Vital Stove like small pieces of deadwood, twigs, straw, natural fibers, and charcoal.
• The Vital Stove can prevent environmental disasters by reducing the stress on natural resources. With only 1 pound of hardwood, the Vital Stove flame can last for more than 40 minutes; with three to five charcoal briquettes, it can even last up to 1 hour.
• The Vital Stove improves the security of women and girls because they need not go to remote places to find wood.
• The Vital Stove produces up to 20,000 BTU of intense heat energy for a wide variety of uses such as for cooking food, purifying water, and providing heat.
