To a lot of people, the building of a new industrial area, building or refinery is just digging out a hole and building upwards until it’s all done and the place opens for business. However the process is much more complicated than that and requires a substantial amount of administration and Document Management in order to progress smoothly.

Yes, it is a bit of a case of health and safety gone mad and people walking around with clipboards appearing to do very little – and this angers everyone – but there is a very good reason for it. Without someone keeping track of what is going on, what is done safely and when a specific element of the project has been completed, there could be severe repercussions.

While it’s all very important stuff, it can result in paperwork dotted all over offices, and in some cases those offices can be right around the country with head office having to sign off what has already been signed off by the department at the site. Ultimately, this paperwork runs the risk of being lost and should anything go wrong down the line, there is no solid proof of anything being signed or any concerns being noted. (more...)

Wood is the oldest form of fuel widely used all across the world that has been the only source of heating from pre historic age. Industrial revolution came in offering fossil fuels as an alternative source of energy but the oil crisis in 1970s restored back the demand of wood fuels. Most of us associate wood fuels with burning logs that comes from cutting down the trees. It impacts our environment adversely because of the mass cutting of trees to avail wood for our stoves and boilers.

Environmentally friendly fuels such as heat logs and wood briquettes helps us to save trees because of their innovative approach in using waste sawdust and off-cuts. The sawdust and off-cuts that is otherwise either burned or finds a way in landfills is the raw material behind these fuels. These are cleaner, greener and heat efficient alternative fuels made through recycling waste products from sawmills.

Heat logs and wood briquettes are recycled form of fuel, unique in offering an efficient and smoke free heat source that generates more heat than burning coal or timber. They burn themselves completely due to less moisture content, giving out more heat and results in leaving back a very small residual ash as a by-product. It is a good practice to store it in cool dry place so that it doesn't absorbs the moisture content from the atmosphere. (more...)
