Pellet is the English name given to wood pellets. The pellet delivery service is a fuel derived from the compaction of the by-products of the first processing of wood (such as sawdust) which are refined, dried and then highly compressed without glue or additive (max 2%).
The diameter of the wood pellets oscillates between 6 and 8 mm and it measures between 15 and 25 mm. Their moisture content is very low less than 10%, which optimizes their combustion and calorific output (5 kWh per kg).
700,000 tons were produced in 2012 by the 131 producers, which makes it possible to meet the national demand.
Shipments of cargoes
When you book a complete cargo shipment, you get the strong network partnerships transport that allows CSA to be one of the first companies shipping goods partial load (CP) Canada / State -United.
- Pellets Delivery
Pellets are supplied in bags (15kg in general), in the range of 1 ton (950 to 1050kg depending on the manufacturer) or bulk per ton (if that requires a
specific truck called "blower truck").
The freight costs are quite high because delivery monopolizes a delivery driver and a large truck. A carrier asks on average 60 € for 1 pallet delivery service and not much more 2 pallets ... so it can be interesting to make reservations if you have enough storage space.
It is sometimes possible to take the pellets on hand to avoid shipping

- Pellets Price
The price mainly varies according to the distance of delivery, packaging and product quality. The purchase of bulk costs less than the pallet of 65 bags (on average), as is the purchase of an uncertified product (vs din +, NF HQ, En + which we speak elsewhere).
- Storage pellets
Pellets are fragile and it is important to avoid shocks (Otherwise the granules become dust and lose some of their calorific value).
Also, avoid any moisture! It is not only a matter of storing them in the rain, but also of finding a dry place (to prevent the pellets from being loaded with water contained in the air).
If you buy bags, avoid pouring the pellets directly into the tank. Go through a container (a bucket for example) to spread the "thin".
- Use in a pellet stove
Except to use a cart to pellets, the pellets are not used in wooden vessels.
The use of these specific devices that are stoves or pellet boilers brings many benefits:
* A controlled combustion and optimized (due to near real-time electronic settings).
* An easy installation in ducts
* Lack of chore or almost
ignition and supply are automatic. The harder to put wood back every hour ... The ash rate is less than 1%.
* Environment and air quality preserved (Burning pellets in a burning stove pellets
