WHO WE ARE
What SDL Specialises In
Discover the various sectors within SDL and explore the multitude of ways in which our diverse business can provide valuable assistance to your specific needs.
Pellets
Wood Pellets
SDL Pellets is our state of the art wood pellet production plant, which is part of the SDL Solutions Group. Producing a range of wood pellets from equine to domestic and commercial heating - we guarantee you won't find a better quality wood pellet.
Having a UK based pellet plant affirms our dream of optimising the tree harvesting cycle, with our own Sawmill allows a firm trajectory for collaborative, sustainable and full-circle wood pellet production.
Harvesting
We work with generational forest and timber growers to sustainably fell trees that have been grown specifically for this purpose. Our dedicated team harvest the trees and then the timber is processed by SDL sawmills- leaving the land clear to be replanted.
Processing
All parts of the felled trees are used, be it for bark, wood chip or simply sawmilled timber for use in construction and other industries.

Contractor Clearances

Biomass
Biomass Fuelled Energy
SDL is powered by Biomass, along with our local area. We run a combined heat and power system using biomass fuel to provide sustainable, green energy to the local grid. This power also fuels our pellet line. By utilising material from site clearances and tip sites, we recycle this material from waste to an environmentally friendly resource.
Tip Sites
We run recycling sites around the country that tree surgeons and other members of the public 'tip off' green waste at. This material (chip, logs, brash etc) is then processed via screening and other methods to become useful biomass fuel.
Collections
We also collect wood chip and logs from tree surgeons all around the country using our HGV fleet. This material is processed by us at one of our sites and then brought to our main site to be used to power the boiler.
