We can state that pellet, which is alternative and renewable, has many types in terms of raw materials. In general, all types of wood can be used in pellet production. But, softwood types (coniferous trees) are more suitable for pellet because the softwood types contain more lignin than hardwood types (leafy trees). Lignin is available in wood as a natural adhesive material and contributes as a binding agent in pellet production. No additional additives are required in pellet production.

There will not be any problems in the production stage because our country is very rich in plant varieties. This production can be made from all kinds of forest products such as trees, chips, shells, walnut shells, almonds etc. Whitewood, shells and logging residues used as pellet raw material have the characteristics of raw material. Notwithstanding, even a whole tree can be used as a raw material in pellet production. However, the main raw material for pellet is sawdust. Especially sawdust is used more. Since sawdust has an extremely low cost, it is much more preferred. Summarily, the raw material required to produce pellet can be easily found in nature. But, the flammability of pellet made only from sawdust or type of softwood will be low. In this respect, pellet quality is increased if hardwood types are included as a raw material mixture. Especially the raw materials obtained by mixing pine, beech and cones increase the quality.

Another factor affecting the pellet quality is the correct application of the humidity content in the system used. Rate of humidity is a factor that affects the density of the material used during compression. Correct adjustment of this rate appears as a factor affecting pellet quality and flammability.

We, as NOK PELET, put the pellets, which we produce by mixing certain rates of pine, cones and beech into the sawdust, at the disposal of the user in a way that the quality standard exceeds the market. Our innovation activities continue within the framework of our R&D activities for pellets produced at high quality.
