Our Story: From Wine Waste to Sustainable Warmth
Vino Logs was born from a serendipitous discovery and a passion for sustainability. Irish entrepreneurs John Mullins and Gina Miltiadou stumbled upon the concept of fire logs made from winemaking waste during their travels. Recognizing the potential for a truly eco-friendly
product, they embarked on a mission to bring this innovative idea to life.
The Birth of VinoProd
To turn this vision into reality, John and Gina partnered with South African businessman David Botha. Together, they established VinoProd, a company dedicated to creating valuable products from discarded wine waste. Located in Strand, South Africa, VinoProd focuses on two main offerings:
1. Vino Logs: Our flagship eco-friendly fire logs
2. Crude Grapeseed Oil: a versatile by-product of wine production, finds applications in various industries including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and culinary uses, where it's valued for its light texture, high smoke point, and potential health benefits.
