wood pellets

Where do wood pellets come from

     Produced from waste from the wood processing industry,_cc781905-5cde-3b5cf586bad5cf5 from wood waste from sawmills and pieces of wood that are normally discarded, such as: bark, trimmings, edges, chips, sawdust, etc.

    They can be manufactured from various types of wood in a mixed way or from just one type, the most common being woodmanufacturing  from Pinus Elliottii wood where no other additionwaste  and produced 100% pure.

Sustainability e Benefits

     The burning of the pellets gives rise to a neutral cycle of CO² emissions,_cc781901-94cde-3bbd_3bbd since the CO² emissions generated during burning are equivalent to the CO² sequestered by trees in life. When you choose to usefuel Pellets in arrayenergetic  from your company you are helping the environment!

    Pellets are a clean alternative to fossil fuels and can be handled easily when compared to firewood and other fuels. The amount of ash resulting from burning the pellets is very low, between 0.3 and 1%.

     Pellets are also considered “smoke free fuel”, that is, their burning generates insignificant smoke, and in most cases invisible cases (depending on the amount of energy needed and the condition of the boiler/furnace).  Pellets are considered the cleanest solid fuel and the least harmful to nature on the planet.
