'''Trangia''' is a trademark for a line of alcohol-burning [[portable stove]]s manufactured by [[Sweden|Swedish]] company '''Trangia AB'''. These stoves are designed primarily for backpackers, with a focus on light weight, durability and simple design. First sold in [[1925]], Trangia stoves were initially preferred to kerosene (paraffin) pressure stoves because they required only one type of fuel (alcohol, usually in the form of methylated spirit). Trangia's most unique selling point is that the entire packaged stove, including pots, is not significantly larger than a standard camp cooking pot. For this reason the Trangia has retained much of its popularity despite the development of alternative stove fuels and designs. | '''Trangia''' is a trademark for a line of alcohol-burning [[portable stove]]s manufactured by [[Sweden|Swedish]] company '''Trangia AB'''.
