Moffatts Flower Company - Wood fuelled heating

Moffatts Flower Company, a greenhouse complex buys briquettes in its onsite boilers produced for sale by Southern Pine.
Description of facility: 

Moffatts Flower Company managing director Steve Moffatt says the briquettes make excellent fuel, being bone dry and with a high energy content. “It’s improved our carbon footprint dramatically,” he says. Moffatts Flowers has 2 ha of greenhouse complex to heat. The company buys all the briquettes Southern Pine produces, which provides around 10% of its total fuel needs.

Ideally they would like more – Mr Moffatt says he can’t imagine a time when they wouldn’t buy as much briquette fuel as Southern Pine can supply.
