Oak Wood Chips
Buy Oak Wood Chips Online Europe. Oak wood chips are a sophisticated choice for those looking for a premium fuel solution that combines tradition with modern energy efficiency. Our sorted oak wood chips are made from high-quality European wood and offer exceptional properties. Thanks to the dense structure of oak, our chips provide consistent and long-lasting heat, ideal for biomass boilers and family heating systems. Each batch is carefully processed to ensure optimal particle size (3-7 cm) and ideal moisture content below 30 per cent. Oak wood chips are not only an environmentally friendly choice but also an investment in comfortable, economical heating for your property for years to come.
How to Properly Store Oak Wood Chips
One of the biggest advantages of chips is their easy handling. Unlike traditional firewood, which is dried for years, oak wood chips dry out within one year. If you want to maximise their quality:
- Store in a well-ventilated area with access to air
- Protect from prolonged moisture using a roof or tarpaulin
- Ensure adequate air supply between the pile – prevent mould
- Use big bags or bags for easier handling
A significant risk of storage is the occurrence of mould, so good ventilation is important for the chips to dry out within a few months.
