Drax Biomass operations are strategically located in the Southeastern U.S., providing ready access to large tracts of responsibly managed working forests, modern infrastructure and an available workforce of trained loggers, wood haulers, plant operators and other critical specialties.

We own and operate three manufacturing plants that convert locally sourced wood fiber into compressed pellets. The plants are located in areas hard-hit by recent consolidation in the pulp and paper industry, resulting in a surplus of low-value wood from harvesting operations.
