Biomas and Wood Fuel
Production

RAC Forestry is committed to providing sustainable solutions for biomass and wood fuel production. By utilising our advanced machinery and expertise, we transform low-grade timber and vegetation residues into high-quality biomass products, supporting renewable energy production and reducing reliance on fossil fuels.

A more sustainable alternative to the fossil fuels commonly used.
With our Mus-Max chipper complete with interchangeable screens we can produce and supply all grades of wood chips for example G20, G30, G50 and G80 hardwood and softwood all sourced locally and invariably harvested by our own teams.

We can produce material for a range of systems from domestic boilers through to more demanding commercial systems.
We can also carry out the whole service from felling the tree to chipping for the clients who like to use their own resources.
Alternatively we can chip material on a purely contract basis.

 

Comprehensive Biomass Services

Our biomass production process begins with sourcing timber and residues directly from our harvesting and site clearance operations. We ensure that every step, from felling to chipping, is carried out with precision and sustainability in mind. Our services include:
– Harvesting and processing timber specifically for biomass production.
– Recovering residues from neglected or unmanaged woodlands and commercial harvesting sites.
– Producing biomass materials tailored to both domestic and commercial applications.

Advanced Biomass Equipment

At the heart of our biomass operations is the Mus-Max WT11 Chipper, equipped with interchangeable screens for producing wood chips in a range of grades, including G20, G30, G50, and G80. This versatile equipment allows us to meet the needs of various systems, from domestic boilers to demanding commercial installations.

We also offer contract chipping services, where clients can supply their own material to be processed by our machinery. Alternatively, we provide a complete end-to-end service, including felling, processing, and chipping.

Sustainability and Environmental Responsibility

RAC Forestry takes pride in its commitment to sustainability. Our biomass operations are designed to:
Minimise Waste: Residues that would otherwise be burned or discarded are repurposed into valuable biomass products.
Reduce Carbon Footprint: Biomass fuels produce fewer greenhouse gases compared to fossil fuels.
Support Renewable Energy: By providing a renewable energy source, we contribute to a sustainable future.
Promote Woodland Management: Restoring neglected woodlands not only enhances biodiversity but also creates a sustainable supply of biomass materials.

Certifications and Quality Assurance
Our biomass operations are guided by strict quality and safety standards. With certifications such as ISO 9001:2015 and SSIP Acclaim Accreditation, we ensure that our products and processes meet the highest industry benchmarks. Additionally, the integration of NHSS 18 standards underscores our commitment to professional and safe vegetation management practices.
