What are renewable fuels?
Fuels that originate from sources that can be renewed and will not run out, such as trees, crops, wind and water. Unlike fossil fuels whose reserves are finite.
What does Carbon Neutral mean?
Wood fuels and other forms of biomass are considered ‘carbon neutral’, in that the amount of carbon absorbed while the tree is growing is the same as the amount that is released when it is burned.
Why use wood products?
Wood products are carbon-neutral, renewable wood-fuels, delivered in a clean, convenient format suitable for today’s lifestyle.
What are Wood Pellets and Heat Logs made of?
Compressed shavings and sawdust from sawmills processing timber from sustainably managed forest plantations.
Where does the timber come from in the first place?
100% virgin wood from sustainably managed forestry, mainly pine and spruce.
Are there any chemicals or gluing agents in wood products?
None at all in Forever Fuels Wood Pellets and AGROL Heat Logs. Products are formed into Pellets and/or Heat Logs through high temperature and pressure as the raw material is extruded through a die. The natural lignin found in the wood itself acts as a binder when exposed to high temperature and moisture.
Can I burn my wood products in smokeless zones?
Yes in approved appliances. Refer to your retailer or manufacturer of your appliance.
How should I store my wood products?
Indoors or under cover – not exposed to moisture.
Do wood products produce a lot of ash residue?
Very little ash is produced, less than 1%.The ash produced can be recycled as a fertilizer for your garden.
