About HVE Woodpelleting
Our plant is situated in Pietermaritzburg capital city of KwaZulu Natal, South Africa.
We are 70km away from South Africa’s main port in Durban which makes it ideal for export. First production started in 2007.
We are a family operated company with 3 generations of experience in the wood pellet industry. In 2007 there was no market in South Africa for the wood pellets and we aimed mainly on the export market.

The Manufacturing Process
Providing Value To Our Clients Through Ongoing Production & Innovation
The material used for making our pellets comes from different areas. We try to use mostly waste material and transform it into fuel and/or cat litter pellets. Others are buying logs and plain them to get sawdust but we do not believe that that is a green solution.
We go to sawmills in our area and collect the wet sawdust with our container transport system.
Safety in Use
Biomass wood pellets are produced from virgin wood and natural crop straw, free of any chemicals. No poisoning, blast or leak accidents.
Save Your Money
Wood pellets are advantageous compared to fossil oil or natural gas, you can save about half of your expenses on fuel and electricity.
Carbon Neutral
Pellets are made with sawdust from the wood processing industry (furniture, pallets, lumber, etc) and the carbon released is equivalent to what on tree absorbs
Clean & Green
Biomass wood pallets are friendly to the air during the production process, no additives or adhesives are added. The CO2 emissions benefit the plants.
Eco-Friendly
Wood pellet heating is known for extraordinary low emissions. It provides a secure future market in the fight for green energy and environment.
