INDUSTRIAL BIOMASS FUEL · NORTH ISLAND
Biomass fuel made to your boiler's spec, every load
We turn forestry residue into consistent wood fuel for industrial boilers, with long term supply you can plan around.
Pay only for the energy you get
Wet chip costs you twice: once when you buy it, and again when your boiler struggles to burn it. With our pay per gigajoule option you pay for the usable energy delivered, not the water in the load. If the fuel underperforms, we wear it, not you. Every load is moisture tested to calculate its energy content, so your invoice matches what your boiler actually got.
Why boiler operators choose Silvertree
We go to the fibre, not the other way round. Most wood fuel suppliers run a fixed yard and wait for old pallets, offcuts and waste wood to turn up. That works for a small boiler, not one that burns tens of thousands of tonnes a year. We take our grinding and screening gear out to the forest and recover slash where it lies, so one job cleans up the block and feeds your boiler.
No double handling, a fairer price. We process in the forest and haul straight to your boiler. Your fuel isn't trucked from someone else's site to our yard and then on to you, so you're not paying for two lots of freight.
Fuel engineered to your site. We work with your engineers to set chip size, moisture and species, then hold every load to it.
We own the whole chain. Recovery, grinding, screening and haulage all sit under one roof, so there are fewer handoffs and fewer excuses.
Proven at scale
250,000 tonnes of fuel produced to spec each year.
5,000+ tonnes of slash recovered on a single forestry block.
Our own CBI 5800BT grinder and screening operation.

Slash off the hillside, fuel into the boiler
On a red zone forestry block in the Bay of Plenty, we have recovered and processed more than 5,000 tonnes of slash, and the job is still going. We pull slash from anywhere on the block, not just the landings. The result: the forest manager no longer needed consent to leave slash behind, and that waste became fuel.
What we do
Biomass fuel supply: chip to spec on 5 to 10 year contracts.
Slash recovery and land clearing: forestry blocks, orchards, farms and development sites.
Contract grinding and haulage: our grinder on your site.
Animal bedding: clean bedding for calf sheds, horses and poultry.
Mulch and landscaping: forest floor, black dyed and playground chip.
Land clearing, stumps and all
Around 40 hectares of orchard cleared in the last 12 months
We take out the trees, pull every stump, root rake the ground and leave it reworked and ready for planting or building. Near Te Puke, we cleared a 3 hectare avocado orchard for a new kiwifruit development in two weeks, from first machine on site to grass seeded ground. The wood goes to boiler fuel, not a burn pile.
Growing with New Zealand's biomass demand
As more industrial boilers switch to biomass, demand for reliable fuel is climbing. We produce 250,000 tonnes a year to spec today, and we're investing in more processing capacity and regional supply hubs so we can grow alongside our customers' long term energy needs.
