Low impact timber harvesting and extraction

At Inferno Groundworks, we specialize in Low Impact Timber Harvesting and Extraction, offering sustainable and environmentally conscious solutions for woodland and forest management. Our approach minimizes damage to the surrounding ecosystem while ensuring the efficient and responsible harvesting of timber. We are committed to preserving the long-term health and biodiversity of your forest, combining modern techniques with a respect for nature.

Selective Timber Harvesting
Rather than clear-cutting large areas, we use selective harvesting techniques to remove only the trees that need to be harvested, preserving the overall structure and health of the forest.
Minimizing Ground Disturbance
Our team uses specialized equipment and techniques to minimize soil compaction and disturbance. This reduces erosion risks and ensures that the forest floor remains fertile and ready for natural regeneration.
Cable Logging
In areas where vehicle access is limited, we use cable logging techniques to extract timber without damaging sensitive areas of the forest.
Forwarding and Skidding
We carefully plan timber extraction routes to minimize disruption to the landscape, using low-impact forwarding and skidding techniques that protect the remaining trees and the forest floor.

Benefits of Low Impact Timber Harvesting
