Nothing is wasted
Reduction of waste and energy efficiency play an important role in the way Wood Plastix does business. Briquettes are usually made from renewable resources and waste, reducing deforestation and waste accumulation. At the Wood Plastix factory, wood processing byproducts like sawdust and scrap wood are precious materials, which are turned into briquettes by our auxiliary industry.
Briquettes are a cheaper alternative to other fuels like coal, wood logs, or gas. They have a higher density and energy content compared to loose biomass, which allows them to burn longer and provide a more consistent heat output, making them efficient for cooking and heating. This is an eco-friendly, cost-effective, and efficient alternative for fuel and heating purposes, popular in various household, rural and urban alike.
Using briquettes helps reduce reliance on fossil fuels, promoting more sustainable energy use. They are made from locally available materials, which reduces transportation emissions. Even on the local level, briquettes are easier to transport than other fuel sources, due to their compact and uniform shape. This allows briquettes to take up less space than traditional firewood, and provides for a cleaner and more orderly wood shed or basement.
As briquettes typically have low moisture content, they are a more efficient fuel, as their combustion creates minimal smoke and residue, thus producing fewer harmful emissions compared to traditional fuels. Switching to briquettes is one more way to contribute to reducing humanity’s carbon footprint and overall pollution levels on our planet.
