What it’s for

Pellet and briquette plants use wheat straw as a primary or blend fibre.

Power and industrial boilers may co-fire straw where ash chemistry is acceptable.

Forage buyers should use the animal-forage wheat straw guide instead.

How it’s used

Step-by-step for buyers specifying, receiving and using this product.

Align moisture to the die

Many ring-die lines prefer ≤12–14% incoming moisture. Agree drying and storage with the exporter.

Lab ash and CV

Request ash % and calorific value; reject lots outside boiler or pellet customer limits.

Compress and stuff

Compressed bales raise FCL payload; keep lots dry and document bale weights.

Process at the mill

Chop, grind and condition per your process map; control dust and fire risk.
