100 % natural - briquettes free from additives
WEIMA wood briquettes are a Pure natural product made without additives or adhesives. Through processing, such as shredding and drying to a water content of usually less than 10%, compacted wood residues achieve a high degree of homogeneity. The cross-linking of the wood fibers and the adhesive effect of the natural wood components such as lignin and wax make the briquettes dimensionally stable – without the use of binding agents. These sustainable briquettes offer an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional fuels and are made from 100% natural raw materials.
Solid briquettes made of wood
Thanks to their high compression, WEIMA wood briquettes offer a significantly higher calorific value than loose wood waste. Whether solid wood, chipboard, plywood, OSB or MDF - the briquettes burn longer and more efficiently. As a result, companies not only save on heating costs, but also rely on a sustainable energy source that offers maximum efficiency.
Earning instead of disposing: Why your WEIMA wood briquettes are worth cash!
With WEIMA briquetting presses, companies can do more than just recycle their wood waste. They create an additional source of income. WEIMA wood briquettes are in great demand as a heating material due to their high density and stability. This means that companies can not only use their wood briquettes themselves, but also sell them successfully.
Wood briquettes are packaged and ready for resale
