A complete forestry and clearance service Sibton Abbey Contracting offers a comprehensive list of forestry services and more, from site clearance to pond dredging. No job is ever too big or too small, even at the most demanding of sites or harshest conditions. Based in Suffolk, the company operates throughout East Anglia and beyond; priding itself on its deliverance of a quick and efficient service at a competitive price. With a wide range of state-ofthe-art machinery, it is constantly reinvesting in the latest equipment to make the task at hand more efficient and the job productive.

Its extensive range of services includes site clearance, biomass chipping, tree shearing, forestry mulching, woodland management and felling, pond dredging and construction, ditch clearing and maintenance, timber extraction and purchasing and ride creation and management. Sibton’s top-of-the-line, cranefed biomass chipper produces superior G30 and G50 biomass wood chip that can get almost anywhere – from farm yards to garden clearances. The company offers a fixed-rate biomass chipping service of cordwood to stay competitive with larger chippers. Using a fixed-tooth forestry mulcher mounted on a tracked skidsteer, it can chew and grind down overgrown vegetation up to 400mm, covering 180-litres/min. Sibton Abbey also offers pond dredging and construction services – which helps to restore and revitalise ecosystems when ponds and lakes naturally fill with silt and vegetation – as well as ditch clearing, an important contributor to keeping a field drainage system running.

Fuelwood Warwick Limited is the Forestry and Firewood Machinery Specialist. With a range of excavator attachments, including tree shears, grapples and mulchers, high volume pruning, hedging, thinning and clearance work can be accomplished quickly, efficiently and, above all, safely from the operator’s chair of a 360o.

Once the ground has been cleared, the Plaisance mulchers clear the area back to virgin mulch and leave a site that any professional would be proud of. For more information on this range of machines or any other Forestry or Firewood Machinery requirement, please call

73662

The machine arm gets into all the awkward places, and makes light work of the handling of the timber. The same machine and attachments can be used to load a whole tree chipper, of which Fuelwood offer the Heizohack range, and with machines always in stock, a solution can be found to your requirements straight away.
