For the woodworking industry and sawmills
Wood-waste utilization – pellet lines for sawdust and wood chips
As a sawmill owner, you know that piles of sawdust and offcuts are frozen capital. Instead of selling them for pennies, turn them into pure profit. We provide industrial-scale wood-biomass processing technologies. Our solutions enable efficient granulation of sawdust (both softwood and hardwood) and help you close the loop in your facility by converting waste into highly demanded ecological fuel.
What does our offer for sawmills include?
We deliver turnkey, scalable solutions — from a few hundred kilograms to several dozen tons per hour:
- Complete pellet-production lines for sawdust and wood chips – continuous process from raw-material intake to finished product in bags or Big Bags.
- Complete briquette-production lines– ideal for smaller fractions, reducing waste volume by up to tenfold.
- Sawdust dryers – drum, belt or floor dryers, essential when moisture exceeds 15%.
- Chippers and hammer mills– for shredding sawmill offcuts and preparing the perfect fraction for pelletizing.
- Transport systems – conveyors and buffer tanks ensuring uninterrupted operation.
Why choose a Comerc pellet line?
Our machines are designed for multi-shift operation. We implement projects covering the production of heating pellet from sawdust and chips (including certified energy pellet), animal bedding pellet, and even lines adaptable for feed-pellet production.
Questions and answers
When is it profitable to invest in a pellet line?
The investment pays off fastest in facilities that have their own stable source of raw material (sawdust), eliminating the cost of purchasing and transporting it.
Can I pelletize wet sawdust directly from the saw line?
Not directly. Sawdust must be dried to about 10–14% moisture. That’s why our lines integrate efficient drum, floor or belt dryers.
What are the spatial and energy requirements?
We design “custom-fit” lines. We adapt machine layouts to your available space (offering compact solutions for existing halls or full new-plant projects) and optimise electricity consumption per ton using next-generation, energy-efficient equipment to ensure high profitability.
