Figures from Admine product specs used in supply talks — not a lab certificate for every lot.

Whole EFB is bulkier and usually wetter. Palm fiber sits higher on calorific value but can bridge or dust depending on the plant’s handling system.

Admine briefs EFB above 1,700 kcal/kg with moisture max 55%, and fiber above 2,700 kcal/kg with moisture max 40% by weight.

Choose based on boiler acceptance and energy at the gate—not only baht per tonne.

Tell Admine which form your feeders accept before comparing Thai offers.
