Forest Logging
ALFA WOOD is one of the first licensed companies for the processing and recycling of wood residues and today develops new activities in the field of environmental management. We operate with excellent specialization, modern design, innovative practices, efficiency and environmental sensitivity.
Public Forest Logging
ALFA WOOD GROUP collaborates with public bodies and forestry services to implement forest logging projects, aiming to produce high quality timber and ensure the sustainability of the forest ecosystem. All activities are carried out in accordance with forest legislation and the rules of forestry science.
Forest Logging of Municipal Forests
Through collaborations with municipal bodies, we undertake the proper environmental management of municipal and peri-urban forests. We support effective cleaning and removal of logging residues. We promote the recycling and productive utilization of logged timber. In this way, municipal forests are protected from diseases and fires, while at the same time strengthening the local economy.
Forest logging of private forests
We undertake logging and clearing in private forests. We also undertake the preparation of management studies as well as the management, protection, development and exploitation of these forests, within the framework of long-term contracts.
Military Units Logging
We implement logging projects within military units. We offer comprehensive and specialized solutions that meet the needs of the military, such as special approaches to the site, immediate and careful interventions and the effective removal of both dangerous trees and forest residues - combustible material.
Sanitary Logging
The company specializes in the removal of diseased trees to improve forest health and prevent natural disasters. For example, sanitary logging is carried out in cases such as:
•Treatment of metachromatic ulcer of the plane tree (Ceratocystis platani).
•Management of forest populations affected by the bark-eating insect (Tomicus piniperda).
•Clear-cutting of burned areas.
In these particular cases of logging, specialized forest workers, experienced scientific personnel are required for the design of logging operations (radial zones, thinnings, disinfections, etc.) and the use of harvesting and removal machinery, of specific specifications, for the immediate and most effective completion of the work.
Forest and woodland clearings
In recent years, especially after the devastating fires, we have been active in clearing projects throughout Greece, according to the instructions of the forestry services and in collaboration with specialized teams of forest workers and construction machinery (chippers, transport vehicles, etc.). We utilize modern forest residue management practices to reduce the risk of fires and other natural disasters.
