Forest Certification

Currently in the private forestry sector in Ireland, there is just 5.69% of the forests certified.

This is very low by European standards.

A recent report by COFORD A Study on Private Forest Certification in Ireland estimated that in the 5 year period from 2022 to 2026, almost 2000 forest owners, principally farmers will need to have their forests certified in order to maintain certification thresholds.

This represents almost 3 million cubic meters of timber.

A significant task which needs immediate action by Government.

What People Say About
Forestry Services Ltd

We employed Forestry Services to deal with our wind farm tree felling and replanting issues. We were very pleased with the outcome and the way they went about their business. They took ownership of the issues involved and the experience that they brought to bear in terms of finding suitable forestry locations and in their dealings with the Forestry service allowed that portion of the project to progress in a smoothly and in a timely manner. I would have no issue in recommending Forestry Services and intend to use them again in the future.
