Pelletising
Pelletising is the process of compressing light material into the form of a pellet. This has many advantages, mainly by reducing dust in transport and increasing the density of the material being transported. We have two pelletising units, capable of pressing material into the form of a pellet. The small unit can produce pellets at a rate of 3 kg/h whereas the larger unit can operate up to 100 kg/h.
We have a flexible range of FarmFeed Systems pelleting units. Our smaller Minipress unit can produce wood and straw pellets at a rate of 3 kg/hr. On this unit moisture and oil can be added via a drip feed system. Our larger unit can operate 100 kg/hr and has a full range of straw and wood dyes – making it fully flexible. The addition of binders, oil and moisture is controlled via a screw or pump. Although the equipment is designed to pelletise wood and straw, we are not limited to these raw materials and look forward to new requests.
To use the pelletising equipment or find out more about its capabilities, please contact us.
We have an extensive range of pre-processing equipment, see below.
Pre-processing
Macerator
The macerator is capable of reducing solids to small pieces; producing slurries and processing biomass materials with high water content.
Microbiology facilities
Our microbiology laboratory offers a range of equipment allowing users to safely handle, store and work with a variety of aerobic and anaerobic microbes, at ACDP hazard category II level.

Seed processing
We have a range of pre-processing equipment to enable us to work with the interesting oils found in seed crops.
Size reduction & grading
Size reduction equipment, such as a cutting mill, a hammer mill or a granulator, with capacities ranging from 4 kg/h to 100 kg/h.
Let's work together
We have worked on 1,500 bio-based projects to date
We have several ways to work with us, including business advisory programmes and self-funded commercial options. We even have the option for you to hire our state-of-the-art laboratory equipment and office space.
