Biomass pellets for the European B2B market
Rix Energy helps European companies choose the right biomass fuel, align technical requirements and organise delivery from a production partner in Kazakhstan. We work with boiler houses, manufacturing plants, heat-energy companies, biomass stations, distributors and traders.
Two B2B biomass pellet products with different application and operating profiles — from a production partner in Kazakhstan.
Sunflower husk · 6–8 mmSunflower husk pellets are a cost-effective industrial biofuel for clients whose equipment can handle higher ash volume. Typical parameters: 6–8 mm diameter, 16–18 MJ/kg calorific value, moisture up to 10%, ash content 2–4%.
Wood · 6–8 mmWood pellets suit commercial and industrial heating systems where lower ash, stable combustion and lower maintenance load matter. Typical parameters: 6–8 mm diameter, 16–19 MJ/kg calorific value, moisture up to 10%, ash content up to 0.7%.
The right choice depends not only on pellet price per tonne. Consider boiler requirements, ash handling, required calorific value, maintenance regime and total cost per unit of useful heat.
Best suited for: Industrial systems where competitive fuel cost is the priority and equipment is designed for higher ash volume.
Important consideration: Ash content is higher than wood pellets, so boiler, burner and ash-removal compatibility should be assessed before ordering.
View sunflower husk pelletsBest suited for: Systems where lower ash, cleaner combustion, more predictable operation and lower maintenance load are priorities.
Important consideration: Wood pellet price per tonne may be higher, but overall economics should be assessed together with maintenance, efficiency and operating mode.

Request a product assessmentThe cheapest product per tonne does not always deliver the lowest heating cost. Buyers should consider calorific value, boiler efficiency, ash content, maintenance frequency, downtime, transport cost and storage losses.
fuel price ÷ useful energy obtained
This is a simplified approach for an initial comparison. A precise calculation needs boiler data, actual efficiency, operating mode, transport cost and batch-specific parameters.

|---|---|---|
| Feedstock | Sunflower husk | Woody biomass |
| Diameter | 6–8 mm | 6–8 mm |
| Length | 10–30 mm | 10–40 mm |
| Moisture | ≤ 10% | ≤ 10% |

| Mechanical durability | ≥ 95% | ≥ 97% |
| Main advantage | Competitive price-to-energy ratio. | Lower ash, cleaner combustion and lower maintenance load. |
| Main consideration | Higher ash content and a suitable ash-removal system are required. | Product price should be assessed together with boiler efficiency and operating costs. |
| Typical application | Industrial boiler houses, plants, CHP, biomass stations and district heating systems. | Commercial and industrial heating systems, boiler houses, wholesale and distribution. |
An informational estimate of an indicative tonnage range. The result is not a guaranteed engineering calculation.
When choosing pellets, what matters is not only price per tonne but also calorific value, ash content, moisture, mechanical durability, boiler compatibility, delivery and documents.
Shows how much energy can be obtained from a given fuel quantity. Product price should be assessed together with actual energy yield.
Affects cleaning frequency, ash-removal system load and total maintenance cost.
Excess moisture reduces usable energy and can impair combustion stability.
Affects dust generation during transport, storage and automatic feeding.
Not all pellets suit all equipment. Assess burner, feed, ash removal and manufacturer requirements.
Align volume, packaging, destination, Incoterms, delivery schedule and documents available for the specific batch.
A structured B2B process from request to delivery.
The exact process may differ depending on order volume, destination, payment terms and required documentation.
A B2B pellet purchase is not only about price per ton. Evaluate calorific value, ash content, moisture, mechanical durability, boiler compatibility, packaging, delivery terms and document availability.

Commercial heating
Seasonal demand and long-term cooperation.
Trading network
Multiple products, varied packaging, repeat orders.
International trade
Exports, CIF/FOB, document traceability.
Sunflower-husk pellets shouldn't be positioned as a universal fuel for every boiler. Before ordering it's worth aligning ash content, feed system, ash removal and combustion mode. We help B2B clients figure out which product is the better fit for their specific system.
