100 % natural maritime pine wood pellet, with no chemical additives or synthetic binders. These are the values checked on every batch before dispatch.
Our brands and formats
Four SKUs in two sizes. The 10 kg bag has a die-cut handle: it is carried in one hand, fits in the trolley and is handled unaided from shelf to stove. Ease of use is its main advantage; the 15 kg bag optimises price per kilo and handling per tonne.

Why choose Serranova
Every detail counts. From where the wood comes from to the warmth in your home.
Heat, sooner
The pellet lights faster and burns steadily. You feel the heat from the first minute.
Performance and savings
Maritime pine with low, stable moisture: fewer kilos for the same heat, and less to pay at the end of the month.
A cleaner stove
A consistent product, with little dust and few fines. Less ash to clear out and fewer breakdowns to fix.

The first plant in Spain
Latest-generation technology
Serranova is the first plant in Spain built on PelletsCUBE, Knoblinger’s system, which brings the whole line —milling, conditioning, press, cooling, screening and discharge— into a closed circuit controlled end to end. A process like that delivers the same pellet on the first day of the season and on the last.
- 5 t/h · 40,000 tonnes a year. The CUBE XL model has the capacity to keep supply going at the height of the season, when pellet is scarce.
- Uniform length A built-in sizer evens out the pellet before it leaves: it feeds better in stoves and boilers, and jams less.
- Less dust in the bag Straight out of the press the pellet is hot and soft, so a conveyor carries it to the cooler instead of dropping it, and it does not break on the way.
- In-line screening and cleaning It is screened before discharge, and foreign material is separated out inside the circuit itself.

What it leaves in the local area
Serranova does more than produce renewable energy. Every tonne moves woodland, jobs and activity in Sierra de Gata.
Woodland management
Our suppliers keep the woodland clear and healthy. Managed woodland is woodland that survives.
Fire prevention
Taking biomass out of the woodland reduces the fuel load. Less material built up means fewer fires, and less fierce ones.
Jobs
Stable jobs in an area that needs them, at the plant and right along the supply chain.
Local development
Industry in a rural area: local suppliers, local transport and activity that stays in the region.
