Forests are at the heart of a transition to a low-carbon economy

Our Vision

Sweetman Renewables anticipates increasing the current workforce at the sawmill by at least a further 25 positions. These jobs will be in addition to employment by Sweetman Biomass related to the sourcing, processing, logistics and transport of biomass. Sweetman Renewables also has ambitious plans to produce green hydrogen. This second stage development will seek to produce green hydrogen commercially through the gasification of woodchips. Gasification is a process that converts biomass into carbon monoxide, hydrogen and carbon dioxide.

Sweetman Renewables, Sweetman Biomass, and later Sweetman Hydrogen will collectively be in a position to provide a significant regional economic benefit directly, and indirectly through supporting business activities and jobs that will make a valuable contribution to the Hunter Valley region.

About Sweetman Renewables

Sweetman Renewables has ambitious plans to expand existing sawmilling operations to utilise additional log resources, notably low-quality logs, through a new automated high-speed log processing facility.

Sweetman Renewables Ltd has acquired the sawmilling complex formerly owned by the Sweetman family at Millfield, near Cessnock, New South Wales, Australia. Additionally, Sweetman Renewables has acquired forested land also previously owned by the Sweetman family. Further land is likely to be utilised in the future to expand both sawmilling and related biomass processing activities.

Sweetman Renewables is the owner and operator of Sweetman Biomass Pty Ltd. This business will be developed into a substantial biomass acquisition processing and related logistics service entity. Sweetman Biomass will focus on providing biomass-based carbon neutral fuel products for domestic consumption, not only from sawmilling operations, but also from other sources of wood waste.

About Sweetman Renewables

The company has been trading as Sweetman’s Timber in the Hunter Valley of NSW for nearly 100 years.
