The UK’s most advanced harvesting fleet

Scroll down

Our range of machinery and equipment is unrivalled. As a group, we own our own vehicles and provide direct access to the most extensive felling and harvesting fleet in the UK.


This allows us to mix and match machinery to suit the project requirements, add specialised tooling and optimise efficiency. Our range of equipment also enables us to quickly increase capacity, react to changing weather conditions and maximise the return of timber.

Investing in safety and efficiency

Our frequent investment in new machinery means our fleet is always ready for the most demanding challenges and terrain. The latest harvesting models automatically monitor external conditions and provide alerts and built-in safety features, which allow our operators to better identify dangerous situations and minimise risks.

Direct ownership also ensures our customers benefit from quicker response times, without any of the typical complications associated with hire agreements and delays in sourcing equipment.

Our fleet in detail

In total, our fleet includes 28 harvesters, 29 forwarders and 14 tracked excavators (including 9 with winch/ skylines). This comprehensive range of available machinery means we always have the most appropriate solution to hand.

In keeping with our commitment to minimise our impact on the forest environment, all of our equipment complies with European Emissions Standard IV.
