Sustainable forest management

Sustainable forest management is the systematic use of forest resources that ensures and harmonizes ecologically, economically and socially our livelihoods and that of our future generations.

Forest Census
The forest census is a statutory requirement that allows us to make an inventory which determines the number and type of trees in our forest; at this stage is where commercially valuable trees are identified and marked to have reached minimum cutting diameters, seedling trees and those for future harvesting.

Annual harvesting area
In accordance to the law of territorial forest concession, the total area of sustainable forest management is divided into 20 parcels for single parcel use per year. This means that after 240 months or 20 years of regeneration, the twenty first cutting cycle or year will once again begin in the same place it started, parcel number 1, thus guaranteeing this certified forest’s sustainable productivity and permanence for eternity.
