Briquettes
For several decades now, Segezha Group's production sites have been producing and supplying heat for the local residential estates.

We expanded our capabilities in the production of green energy and heat in 2013 when we launched the production of RUF fuel briquettes at the Vyatka Plywood Mill.

RUF fuel briquettes are a relatively new type of fuel that offers a number of advantages over other fuel types. They do not contain any substances that could have a negative effect on human health. RUF briquettes do not produce sparks when they burn while leaving minimal ash after burning. They are twice as dense as standard firewood, so when they burn, they produce a lot more heat than firewood. RUF briquettes take much longer to burn and smoulder than firewood.

 RUF briquettes produced by Segezha Group are made from sawdust that does not contain any harmful substances or admixtures. They are completely safe to use and environmentally friendly.

Segezha Group's RUF briquettes are compact and affordable.
