Selling Wood Processing Machines and include Wood Waste Processing Machines

Various wood processed products are increasingly diverse and developing today. The utilization of wood is optimized for its function, especially those originating from production forests. To improve the quality and usefulness of the wood, it needs to be processed specifically, which is carried out in wood processing factories. This also includes the selection of wood plant species that are suitable for the purpose of their use or the product to be made. A number of wood processing products are plywood, blockboard, LVL, barecore, FJLB (Finger Joint Laminated Board), MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard), and pulp & paper.

Wood processing in the industry always requires a number of equipment ranging from the simplest, namely sawmills to complex processes such as pulp and paper mills. In addition to the physical or mechanical processing or production process, there is also a chemical process depending on the product to be produced. Sellers or providers of processing equipment or production machines are generally a complete set (complete line) so that they can be used directly and produce when the raw materials are ready. The more efficient and quality the equipment will be comparable to its price which is a fixed investment in the wood processing industry. The cost and benefit ratio factor is very important in selecting the machine or equipment, especially those that are export-oriented with large production volumes.

The concept of zero waste in the wood processing industries has not been fully implemented. There are still many wood processing industries whose waste pollutes the environment and can have social impacts. This includes sellers or providers of these machines, most of whom are still focused on providing machines or production equipment for the main product but not on the aspect of handling and processing waste. In fact, with the potential for waste produced being quite large, processing this waste is important. Pellet and briquette production is one solution to overcome this. Wood waste in the form of wood chips, offcuts, sawdust, slab and bark can be processed into briquettes and pellets. Sellers or providers of machines or production equipment that are innovative and environmentally sustainable will implement this concept. 

Briquette and pellet production will not only solve the waste problem but will also provide economic benefits. With raw materials for briquettes and pellets coming from waste itself, the cost of raw materials can be said to be zero so that in the end it will provide great benefits. Waste production of up to 1000 tons/month is very suitable for the production of briquettes, while if the waste is very large, for example 5000 tons/month or more, pellet production is more recommended. Briquettes can also be charcoaled to become charcoal briquette products which are in high demand from Turkey, Saudi Arabia and the Middle East. Meanwhile, wood pellets are widely used for power plants abroad, the need for which is expected to continue to increase along with the decarbonization trend. If the seller of wood production or processing machines also offers waste processing equipment such as pellet machines and briquette engines, it will make it easier for wood product producers to manage their environmentally friendly industry, namely zero waste and maximize profits because all parts of the wood can be utilized optimally.
