We provide a full solution for your forestry needs and can assist with the logistics of arranging and organising the removal of timber from felling site to sawmills through our timber haulage service.

We also have many contacts within the forestry and timber world and can assist you to market your timber, securing the best prices available.

Reclamation and re-use of your land can be achieved with the minimum of fuss with the help of our experienced operators - giving you maximum benefits.  We now log approximately 50,000 meters of timber per annum where as  five years ago our production was mainly by hand and yielded approximately, 8000 metres per annum.  Working within FSC certification guide lines we approach our work with the necessary concern and consideration for the environment and  "comply with the highest social and environmental standards on the market."
