STELA Drying Technology is proud to be a Silver Sponsor of the 2025 USIPA Conference, taking place November 9-11, 2025, in Miami Beach, Florida.
Established in 2011, the USIPA Conference brings together global leaders, innovators, and advocates to advance the industrial wood pellet export industry. This year’s theme – Accelerating Sustainable Innovation – underscores the industry’s commitment to responsible growth, advanced technology, and renewable energy leadership.
Drying is one of the most critical steps in pellet production – affecting quality, energy use, emissions, and profitability. STELA’s low-temperature belt dryers are engineered for pellet facilities looking to improve consistency, reduce costs, and utilize available excess heat from other on-site processes.
STELA systems help pellet producers:
- Capture and use low-value heat already available in the plant
- Ensure consistent moisture levels for high-quality, export-ready pellets
- Lower fuel use and emissions, improving sustainability and ROI
Our recent project with Conner Holdings in Homerville, GA is a strong example. STELA’s system transformed Southern Yellow Pine sawmill residuals into a reliable pellet feedstock – delivering measurable efficiency gains and performance.
