We’re thrilled to introduce our newest addition: the Bell Skogger! 🌲💪 This powerful machine is a game-changer for extracting and laying out full-length trees, making our operations more efficient and effective. Not only does it handle the extraction, but it also preps trees for processing with ease. Exciting times ahead as we step up our capabilities!

What we do:🌲🚜🚛 1. Harvesting: The process of cutting down trees and processing them into logs or other wood products. This involves felling the trees, delimbing, and bucking (cutting into appropriate lengths). 2. Extraction: The operation of moving the harvested timber from the stump area to a collection point or roadside landing, typically using specialized machinery such as skidders or forwarders. 3. Short-haul: The transportation of logs from the collection point or landing site to a nearby processing facility, mill, or temporary storage area. This usually involves trucks or trailers designed for timber transport over short distances. 4. Loading: The act of placing the harvested logs onto trucks, trailers, or other transport equipment for either short-haul or long-haul transport. This requires the use of cranes, loaders, or other heavy machinery to handle the timber.

Sustainable timber harvesting is all about balancing today’s needs with tomorrow’s future. By managing forests responsibly, we protect ecosystems, support biodiversity, and preserve the environment for generations to come. Let's keep our forests thriving! 🌲💚
