All-in-one style stoves and screw-in ultralight stoves are all well and good for knocking up a quick brew or a dirtbag backpacking pouch meal. But on extended trips, when you’re cooking for a group – or if you need more than just Pasta n’ Sauce to keep you happy on the trail – you might want something a bit more capable. The highly efficient PrimeTech Stove System is a multi-person all-in-one system with an extremely stable, windproof burner to satisfy the needs of the most demanding backcountry chef. The stove’s regulated output provides consistent heat and precision control but will boil a litre of water in under four minutes. The remote canister setup also delivers superior performance in cold weather. The insulated storage bag allows you to keep drained pasta, rice or noodles warm while you use the ceramic, non-stick coated pot to fry up meats or veggies before simmering a sauce. And of course, the whole set nests neatly together into a compact and rattle-free unit. It’s also available in two sizes – 1.3 litres, to feed 1-3 people, or 2.3 litres, to feed 2-5 people.

In Latin, the word ‘primus’ means ‘first’. And this Swedish brand has been about firsts ever since its humble beginnings in Stockholm back in 1892, when founders F.W. Lindqvist and J.V. Svenson developed the world’s first soot-free kerosene stove. Portable Primus stoves were cleaner, easier to use and more efficient than anything else then in existence. They were soon adopted by explorers and adventurers across the globe. When Amundsen became the first person to reach the South Pole in 1911, he had a Primus stove with him. So too did the 1953 British Mount Everest Expedition, when Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary became the first people to reach the summit of the world’s highest peak.
Since those ground-breaking firsts, Primus’ range has expanded to encompass a range of outdoor cooking equipment. Of course, portable stoves built for backpackers, campers and climbers are still the brand’s core focus. Designed to withstand extreme conditions, Primus stoves have an enviable reputation for long-lasting reliability and real-world efficiency. So, if you’re looking to achieve your own firsts, whether that’s walking your first long-distance trail or going on your first wild camping adventure, Primus should be your first choice.
