Leif this sounds all too familiar, its not good that some peat free composts are sold on the “peat free” tag without being much good, and it is costing gardeners a lot.
However I suggest you look for Melcourt who have been researching and producing wood-based composts for over a decade. Conscientiously I may say, which should go without saying!
Melcourt consistently do well in the trials run by Which? Gardening.
West Riding’s compost is now half based on wood and is as good as their eco-peat based. But you need to buy a lot to get a good price.
Best of luck.
