Sustainable Forest Management
Environmental management is essential for the long-term sustainability of the forest industry.
Our Commitment
Our commitment to supporting the forest environment is reflected in what we do. We are passionate about designing and actively promoting opportunities for achieving environmental improvements and we are continually looking to enhance the environmental benefits plantation forests offer such as carbon sequestration, land stabilisation and water quality, supporting local biodiversity, recreational use and utilisation of harvest residues.
This Is Reflected in What We Do
- Education and training of our contractors and staff
- Monitoring and auditing of our active harvest sites
- Freshwater monitoring
- Bat and Kiwi monitoring
- Fish passage monitoring
- Forest health inspections
- Weed and pest control
- Fire preparedness
Building Long-Term Relationships
Forestry is a long-term relationship between people and the environment. When you work with us, you can rest assured we’re taking the best possible care of your land now and into the future.
