Cutting-Edge Firewood Technology, From Forest to Fireplace
We run one of the most advanced firewood operations in the county — complete with woodland monitoring drones, computer-controlled kilns, Scandinavian processors, and a full fleet of delivery vehicles. From precision thinning to perfectly timed drying, every step is powered by innovation to bring you the best logs, fast.
Cutting Edge Technology
We operate one of the most technically advanced Firewood setups in the county and our equipment includes a woodland monitoring drone so we know exactly which parts of our estate needs thinning etc
We were one of the first suppliers in the area to develop a firewood kiln, in the early days we had just one kiln operating, it was quite a primitive setup and required the logs to be hand stacked thus limiting how much we could produce at any one time, we now have 3 kilns at our disposal each capable of drying 18 cubic m of timber at a time, we also recently built our own control room with a bespoke computer system that gives us much more information as to how the wood is drying and exactly when they need to be emptied, this information is also constantly sent back to our smart phones, in the early days this aspect was largely down to guess work and past recordings hand written in a book telling us how long it took to dry oak, ash, beech etc
The bulk of the timber processing is carried out by 2 huge Scandinavian processors, we also operate a kindling machine and a 30 ton log splitter, for transporting wood around our estates we use a 12 ton custom built timber trailer fitted with a crane and timber grapple, uprated axles so it can cope in the dry conditions when the terrain is stiff and also extra wide flotation tyres so we do not get stuck in the wet.
When it comes to delivering we are equally equiped, 3 x 3.5 ton tipper trucks, and 18 ton tipper crane truck and a 26 ton 6 wheeler fitted with a piggy back forklift, whatever your access is like we are sure we have the right vehicle for the job.
