Sustainable Forest Management
Our forestry operations are driven by the Sustainable Forest Management (SFM) procedures; both our contractors as well as our own field crews are trained in the different modules of Reduced Impact Logging (RIL), which plays a major role in SFM.
The forestry activities consist out of:
Road Planning,
Flagging

Tree selection
2.

Skid Trail & Landing Planning, Flagging & Construction
3.

Each activity is carried out based on the different procedures and rules of SFM; the Foundation of Forest Management and Production Control (SBB) is the forest authority in Suriname; they monitor the different forestry activities; where required, SBB carries out field inspections after which approvals are granted before the next activity can take place.
Within our operations sustainable use of our natural renewable resource, the forest, is interconnected and carried out as much as possible; by doing this we are making sure that future generations can and will make use of what we leave behind.
