Firewood
Sourcing Firewood from Wood Energy Mustang S.a. - Colombia Import Guide
Before ordering, verify the exact species mix and moisture content per batch with the supplier. Request a recent lab report showing calorific value, ash content, and foreign matter percentage. Confirm that packaging meets your destination country’s phytosanitary requirements, particularly if importing into the EU or North America, where wood packaging materials may require ISPM-15 compliance even if not palletized.
Logistics are typically FOB Barranquilla or Cartagena. Lead time is 10 to 14 days after payment confirmation. Incoterms are not stated; buyers must confirm whether the supplier handles export clearance and documentation. Payment terms are likely T/T in advance, but this must be confirmed directly. Bulk shipments are usually containerized; ask for container loading capacity per 20ft or 40ft unit.
Upon arrival, inspect for moisture damage, pest infestation, or packaging failure. Use a moisture meter to test samples from multiple bags. Check for excessive bark or foreign debris. Request a certificate of origin and phytosanitary inspection report from the supplier. Retain samples for quality dispute purposes, especially if the product is used in food-service environments where regulatory compliance is critical.
