Quality control and documentation for B2B supply
A B2B pellet purchase is not only about the price per ton. Buyers evaluate calorific value, moisture, ash content, pellet durability, boiler compatibility, packaging, delivery terms and document availability.

Key quality parameters
How many MJ/kg of energy each kg burned releases.
Affects combustion efficiency and energy losses.
Determines ash removal and maintenance intervals.
Pellet density and mechanical behaviour indicator.
How well pellets keep their shape during transport and feeding.
Whether the batch uses binders or additives.
Which batch / supplier the specific load comes from.
Bulk, big bags, sacks or pallets — affects handling.
