Customer Background: A Furniture Manufacturer in the Philippines

A furniture manufacturing factory in the Philippines generates a large amount of wood waste during daily production. Cutting, sanding, drilling, and other woodworking processes produce sawdust and wood shavings.

Previously, these by-products were mainly treated as waste, resulting in material losses and additional waste-handling costs. The factory owner wanted to find a practical way to recycle this wood waste and reduce the factory’s fuel expenses.

After evaluating different recycling solutions, the customer decided to purchase a sawdust briquette extruder to convert suitable dry wood waste into solid biomass briquettes. The finished briquettes would be used as fuel for the factory’s own industrial boiler.

Solution: SL-50 Biomass Briquette Press

Based on the customer’s production requirements, available raw materials, and electricity specifications, we recommended the SL-50 Biomass Briquette Press.

This machine uses high pressure to compress suitable dry sawdust into dense, solid briquettes. The customer can reuse woodworking waste as a fuel resource instead of simply disposing of it.

The machine has a production capacity of 250–300 kg/h, making it suitable for processing the factory’s daily sawdust output.

Benefits for the Furniture Factory

By introducing this Biomass Briquette Press, the Philippine furniture manufacturer can achieve several benefits:

1. Recycle Woodworking Waste

Sawdust and other suitable wood waste from cutting, sanding, and drilling can be collected and reused as raw materials.

2. Reduce Boiler Fuel Costs

The produced biomass briquettes can partially replace conventional boiler fuels, depending on boiler compatibility and combustion requirements.

3. Improve Resource Utilization

Converting low-value wood waste into solid fuel helps the factory make better use of its existing resources.

4. Support More Sustainable Production

Recycling woodworking by-products reduces waste disposal and supports a more resource-efficient manufacturing process.
