Wood Chips
Our wood chips are produced from select eucalyptus and acacia logs, processed to meet pulp and paper industry standards. We focus on uniform chip size, low bark content, high fiber yield, and consistent moisture, ensuring optimal pulping efficiency and paper quality.
Primary Use: Paper pulp manufacturing (chemical or mechanical pulping processes)
Secondary Uses: MDF, particleboard, and biomass fuel.

Eucalyptus Wood Chips
Renowned for high fiber yield and good brightness, eucalyptus chips produce pulp with superior strength properties and excellent printability.
Acacia Wood Chips
Favored in premium printing and writing paper grades due to high brightness and smooth fiber characteristics. Also suitable for blending with eucalyptus in mixed hardwood pulps.
