Firewood Quality Manual

The Firewood Quality Manual is a tool kit for documenting your process that ensures the delivery of consistent product to your customer. It also provides the evidence for registering with the HETAS scheme for firewood producers.

Benefits of the Firewood Quality Manual:

• This Manual makes it easier to get ready for applying for the HETAS certification, because there is a ready made set of processes and recording forms that meet the scheme requirements.

• Removes the task of designing and documenting your own set of good practices.

• It helps you produce consistent quality firewood for sale with a defined moisture content combined with good customer service.

Who is it written for?

This Manual is written for producers of firewood logs, including kindling. It is targeted specifically at those with an annual turnover of up to 500 tonnes who use natural seasoning to achieve dry logs, but allows adaption to other systems.

How do I use the Manual?
