Exceptional Softwood Chips
Pioneer for Two Decades
Chip exported through SPE is predominantly Pinus Radiata with current volume consisting of 50% from sawmill chip and 50% chip produced from forest thinning
The uniformly high quality Radiata chip makes the product an ideal feedstock for a variety of uses. Traditional end use is bleached kraft pulp and thermal mechanical pulp.
Leading Product Quality
Low bark content assists in achieving high pulp yield with little waste or pulp discolouration.
The low bark content reduces the ash output when used as feedstock for Bioenergy.
Pinus Radiata chip used in bleached and un-bleached Kraft pulp lines provides high burst and tear strength. High pulp brightness is also a characteristic.
Overall, the high proportion of sawmill chip combined with average chip age provides for good pulp characteristics and yield.
