COMMERCIAL FORESTRY

Planting started in 1992 and gained momentum in 1995. Today we have 1215 Ha of Commercial Forest.

FORESTRY MANAGEMENT PLAN

Management of our plantation forests enables us to maintain a sustainable supply of posts, poles, fuel wood and other timber products which is then sold.

Our plantation forests are also monitored against a forestry management plan to ensure replanting of felled areas is done.

THE TREATMENT PROCESS

An industrial treatment cylinder and an initial vacuum is created

The cylinder is flooded under the vacuum with wood preservative

Hydraulic pressure is applied forcing the preservative into the timber cells

A final vacuum extracts excess preservative solution

Low pressure draws in surface preservative solution

OUR WOOD-PROCESSING YARD

Timber is milled, pallets manufactured, "ecofriendly" charcoal produced and firewood sold. Treated poles of many sizes are available for sale.

QUALITY PRODUCTS

We sell a number of high quality timber products from our Timber Yard. For full details of all products available please view our timber brochure.
