We are getting older. So are our forests. To create a climate-stable mixed forest, active forest conversion is necessary to ensure that the forest remains healthy and can provide its functions and ecosystem services for future generations.
Many of the results of past reforestations were analyzed to subsequently optimize the procedures. The goals of our work are successful growth, root formation, rapid crop protection and future growth performance of the forest.
To achieve this, we rely on certified seed, the origin, and whereabouts of which are documented by us right up to the planting site. Our ERP system supports uncompromising traceability in the interests of our forests.
The freshness of the plants, unpressed roots, appropriate planting hole design and the prevention of root-damaging compaction of all kinds are decisive for our high growth guarantee. Various manual planting methods and the use of machine planting with appropriate soil loosening are proven methods.
Comprehensive further training in our own training centers (Silva Futura) ensures quality and care at every step of the process. Should language barriers arise in the context of international cooperation, we deploy German-speaking foremen who comprehensively monitor quality management.
The conversion of the forest requires a joint and meticulously planned (also digital) planting plan - regardless of whether calamities in the forests have caused a clear-cut area or the forest conversion begins before serious damage occurs. To ensure that our meticulous work really bears fruit despite all weather conditions, we give a high, up to 95% growth guarantee on our plantings for the first five years.
