Born from the Trail. Est. 2003.

In the autumn of 2003, a young hiker named David Lyu stood on a mountain trail in Southeast China, surrounded by a vast sea of maple trees blazing with crimson and gold. In that single moment - standing in the wild, miles from anywhere - he found both a name and a purpose.

David was one of China's earliest hiking enthusiasts, hiking long before outdoor culture existed in the country. On every trip, he faced the same frustration: cooking gear that was too heavy, too fragile, or too complicated for real adventures.

So he decided to build something better.

Fire Maple
Fire

Primal, warming, humanity's oldest wild companion.

Fire Maple
Maple

Resilient, adaptive, beautiful through every season.

Fire Maple was founded on a simple belief: outdoor cooking should be light enough to carry anywhere, tough enough to work everywhere, and simple enough that all you need to do is strike a flame.

What started as one hiker's mission has grown into a global community. Today, Fire Maple is trusted by adventurers in 80+ countries - from weekend campers to Himalayan mountaineers. But the spirit hasn't changed. Every product is still designed the way David designed the first: on the trail, for the trail.

For over 22 years, Fire-Maple has been laser-focused on one thing only: outdoor cooking gear. 

Our promise remains the same:

Ultralight

Ultralight

every gram matters

Unbreakable

built for the worst conditions

Effortless

strike, flame, cook, done

Sustainable

the wild places we love deserve to stay wild

One flame. 22 years. Countless adventures.

The fire-maple journey

"I believed then - and still believe now - that everyone deserves the magic of a warm meal in a wild place. That's why I built Fire Maple. "
