Camp cookware isn’t the most glamorous bit of outdoor kit. But it’s well worth investing in a durable and lightweight set, since after a couple of days on the trail, food will be pretty much all you think about. And though one pan might seem pretty much the same as another, as with much outdoor gear, the devil – and the difference – is in the detail. Primus’ Essential Pot Set is a great starter kit consisting of two aluminium pots that neatly pack into each other, making a compact and rattle-free unit. The frying pan is made from hard anodised aluminium with a non-stick coating. It also doubles as a lid, while a handy pot gripper finishes off the kit. This larger 2.3L size is ideal if you’re catering for between two and five 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.
