Wood pellets
Our pellet products only contain wood shavings of known and acceptable origin and production uses almost entirely renewable energy.
A considerate choice
When you choose our pellets you can rest assured that you have made a smart and sustainable choice.
When trees from responsibly managed and carefully controlled forests are sawn, we utilize residues – the sawdust – and manufacture pellets.
The pellets are manufactured from wood shavings of known and acceptable origin. SCA’s forests are responsibly managed from a long-term perspective, with the aim of having at least as much timber, biodiversity and nature experiences in the future as we have today.
We have control over the entire raw material chain. From environmentally compatible forest operations to sawdust at the sawmill.
- No trees are harvested for the sole purpose of making pellets.
- Every tree that is harvested on SCA’s land is replaced with at least two new ones.
- Almost all of the energy used in drying and pressing the pellets is from sustainable sources.
Environmentally friendly, renewable energy
Wood pellets are an environmentally friendly, renewable energy manufactured from sawdust and wood shavings. When the sawdust and shavings are dried and compressed into pellets, it produces a fuel with a high energy content and consistent moisture content. Wood pellets can be used in stoves, heaters in single-family homes and large heating plants.
No forest is harvested for the sole purpose of making pellets
When trees from responsibly managed and carefully controlled forests are sawn, we take care of the residues – the sawdust. The entire harvested tree is used. No trees are harvested for the sole purpose of making pellets. Every tree that is harvested on SCA’s land is replaced with at least two new ones.
Pellets can counteract climate change
Renewable energy types such as pellets contribute to counteracting climate change when they replace fossil fuels or electricity produced with fossil energy.
High-quality, energy-rich pellet
For more than 30 years we have learnt what it takes to manufacture energy-rich pellets with high and consistent quality. The more consistent the quality, the more likely you will experience problem-free heating. Read more about our pellets quality.
