French term or phrase: Façonnage sommaire admis
This is from a contract regarding biomass fuels for a power plant in Europe which must be provided according to the P100 standard.

This has to do with the acceptable _______ of the biomass so that it has a low leaf/needle tolerance. I'm pretty sure it's how it is made and bundled. My guess is that it is "acceptable conversion" or something like that but there may be an industry specific term or a better term than this.

Any help would be appreciated.
