Wood Chips & Biomass: Maximizing Resource Utilization

As part of our commitment to environmental stewardship, Northern Industrial, LLC strives for a near zero-waste operation. The wood chips, sawdust, and bark generated as byproducts from our sawing and planing processes are not waste; they are valuable commodities that fuel other industries.

We produce **high-quality wood chips** primarily for the pulp and paper industry, where consistency in size and species is critical. Our modern chipping equipment ensures a uniform product that meets the exacting standards of paper mills across the region.

Biomass for Sustainable Energy

The remaining bark and wood fines are utilized as **biomass fuel**. This material is either used to power our own kiln drying operations, significantly reducing our reliance on fossil fuels, or supplied to local power generation facilities, contributing to the region's renewable energy portfolio. This closed-loop system is a core element of our sustainability strategy.

Pulp Chip Consistency

Chips are screened for size and species purity, ensuring optimal yield and quality for paper and pulp manufacturing processes.

Energy Content

Biomass material is managed to ensure low moisture content and high BTU value, making it an efficient and reliable source of renewable energy.

Reliable Supply

As a high-volume lumber producer, we offer a consistent and large-scale supply of wood chips and biomass year-round.
