Calorific Densified Logs - Half pallet of 63 packs of 5 easy-to-use compressed logs

Description:

Since 2007, The Stove Centre Alternative Energies and its brand The Stove Centre Wood Energy, a branch of the The Stove Centre Group, has been committed to providing you with sustainable and efficient heating solutions. We sell wood pellets (in bulk or in bags), firewood (cord or bundle), and densified logs to meet your alternative energy needs.

How are densified logs made?

Compressed logs (also called densified logs or day logs) are a 100% natural fuel, made from the recycling of sawmill by-products (sawdust, untreated wood chips, called residues). Without chemical additives, their agglomeration is made possible thanks to lignin, a molecule naturally present in wood. Specifically, the sawdust and wood chips are compressed using mechanical force to obtain logs of identical size and shape. By choosing to heat yourself with densified logs, you contribute to the valorization of wood industry waste.

Wood log and densified log: what is the difference?

While compressed logs and traditional logs share the fact of being 100% natural, they nevertheless have many differences.

• Slow and steady combustion. Due to their smooth and even shape, densified logs burn evenly and emit a gentle and constant heat.
• Simple and quick ignition.
• Ease of transport and storage. Compressed logs are lightweight and easy to store. They also take up less space.
• They do not attract wood-eating insects or pests.
• They do not leave sawdust traces and generate less dust than regular wooden logs. Therefore, they dirty the chimney flues less.
• The logs are easy to store and handle, without dust, without residues.

The advantages of a compressed or densified product are particularly interesting and help you significantly reduce your energy bill.

Technical characteristics:

Why is densified firewood more efficient?

The low moisture content of compressed logs (< 8%) guarantees a high calorific value. Thus, each log burns for between one and two hours to ensure the efficiency of your system. One pallet of compressed logs is equivalent to 4 cubic meters of traditional logs.

Ideal for your stove, boiler, or wood insert, they optimize the heat within your home. Available in packs of 5 logs or by the pallet (126 packs of 5 logs).

• Average weight: 1.5 kg per log
• Dimensions: 8 x 29.5 cm Solid and cylindrical
• Type of wood: From sawmill by-products (compacted chips and sawdust)
• Untreated wood, without additives
• Ash content: < 1%
• Burning time: 1h30 depending on the device
• Moisture content: < 8%
• Calorific value * LHV on raw: 4.6 ≤ LHV ≤ 5.3 kWh/kg

One pallet of densified logs = 4 cubic meters of wood*

Good to know: Have your stove or boiler adjusted by a professional, while staying consistent with the fuel whose regularity you can ensure.

Usage and Safety Tips:

Light the fire! (without hassle)

Lighting tips:

1. First, break a compressed log in half and place the two halves at the base of your fireplace, spacing them slightly apart.
2. On top, arrange the kindling and one to two firestarter rolls before lighting it.

Warning! Only use one to two logs MAXIMUM in the fireplace to avoid excessive heat buildup.

Safety:

Regarding the operation and loading of the appliance (stove, insert or boiler, wood oven, cooker), it is essential to always refer to the manufacturer's and installer’s user manual. Regularly clean the heating appliance and sweep the flue in accordance with regulations.

Handle the fuel with care. It is imperative to transport and store pellets in a dry and ventilated place. Extremely hygroscopic material.

• Keep out of reach of children and animals.
• Keep away from moisture.
• Never use flammable products to light or activate your fire.
• For your health and out of respect for the environment, do not throw plastic material into your device.
• Do not store near a flame or a heat source.
• Maximum storage temperature 40°C.
