You\u2019ve never bought pellets before and are at a loss about how to choose? Don\u2019t worry, given the numerous products on the market it\u2019s not easy to know how to make the right choice to get the most out of your Palazzetti stove<\/strong><\/a>.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re here to help you, starting from a fundamental question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are pellets?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What we normally call pellet <\/em><\/strong>fuel is obtained by mechanically pressing wood sawdust which stays together thanks to lignin, <\/strong>a substance naturally contained in wood that behaves like natural glue.<\/strong>  The result is the typical small cylindrical pellets that are sold by weight, usually in bags containing approximately 15 kg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pellets can therefore be considered an ecological choice:<\/strong> all the wood waste which used to be thrown away or only partially reused now has a new function, becoming an excellent, concrete example of circular economy.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although all pellets look the same, they are not. How can you choose quality pellets then? It\u2019s very simple: just look for the ENplus<\/em>\u00ae <\/strong>seal on the bag!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best pellets are ENplus<\/em>\u00ae <\/strong>certified<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This seal is an international quality certification that guarantees that the pellets in the bag have actually been monitored along the whole production chain, from the wood they are sourced from to delivery to your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This type of product will give you the certainty of purchasing top-quality pellets that are identical in terms of their chemical, physical and energy properties no matter the country you buy them from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are lots of good reasons to choose only ENplus<\/em>\u00ae certified pellets <\/strong>and we would like to give you three of them today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. They\u2019re good for your stove and improve its performance. <\/strong>Non-certified pellets may create all sort of problems, even clogging the inside workings of your stove. By choosing certified pellets you won\u2019t need the urgent assistance of a specialised technician and you will always get the best out of your stove with the least possible fuel.<\/li>
  2. They\u2019re good for the climate.<\/strong> Pellets are naturally eco-friendly because they produce CO\u2082 values that are 10 times lower than those created by other traditional fossil fuels. Certified pellets are even better though because they reduce particulate emissions by 2 to 4 times compared to non-certified pellets. <\/li>
  3. They\u2019re good for the economy. <\/strong>Pellet production is good for related industries  creating up to over 200 work hours more than those connected to fossil fuels.  Thanks to the ENplus<\/em>\u00ae <\/strong>quality seal you can rest assured that you know where your product comes from.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    How can you recognise the ENplus<\/em>\u00ae<\/strong> seal?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Now that you know that the best pellets are ENplus<\/em>\u00ae <\/strong>certifiedthe time has come to look at the seal carefully so that you can quickly determine whether you are buying superior quality pellets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How can you make sure that the pellets you are about to purchase are really ENplus<\/em>\u00ae <\/strong>certified?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The first step is to learn how to recognise the Quality Seal <\/strong>composed of the Certification Mark <\/strong>and of the ENplus<\/em>\u00ae quality grade, <\/strong>as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
