Pellet Fuel is a renewable, clean-burning biomass product made of renewable substances,
generally recycled waste wood and sawdust but also short rotation coppice wood.
Making pellet fuel is a way to divert millions of tons of waste from landfill and turn it into useful energy.
The wood pellet fuel costs £5.85 per 16kg bag inc vat @5% although this price would fall for deliveries of 1 tonne or more.
Our pellet fuel comes sealed in 16kg bags which should ideally be stored under cover or inside. If you were using a pellet stove to heat a typical British three bedroom, reasonably well insulated, semi detached house you would probably use around 1.5 tonnes of wood pellets over the winter months. 1.5 tonnes of the fuel will occupy about 2 cubic metres of space. It is easily possible to get a whole winter's fuel supply neatly stacked in the corner of a garage.
How is Pellet Fuel Made?
Pure sawdust and wood shavings from sawmills is dried and then pressed. The lignin contained in the wood acts as a glue binding the sawdust into briquettes or pellets. No other binding agent is added.
