Pellets, the world’s most natural fuel!
Wood pellets are small compressed cylinders of natural dry wood shavings and sawdust. They are formed under very high pressure and their water content is very low. So these small “drops of energy” only need a small storage volume – a ton of pellets needs only a space of 1.5 m³.
Wood, a natural and renewable fuel, is the ideal solution for safe, sustainable heating. Using sunlight, trees produce the oxygen that is essential for life. The CO2 emissions from burning wood are comparable with those from natural decomposition in the forest. Wood heating helps to preserve the fragile balance of the carbon cycle.
Quality is crucial!
