 The new standard in mechanized plantingJust a quick recap of some of the things we’ve been up to so far in 2024. Make sure to follow @plantmaforestry on social media to get the latest updates and read more on what we are doing. Right now we are taking turns to get some well deserved vacation and renewed energy to continue our work to provide you with the best planting equipment on the planet! During late July and beginning of August we are working at half speed but there is always someone there to support your needs, so don’t hesitate to reach out if you need us. We wish you all a good summer (or winter if your in the southern hemisphere)! Brazil Machines are continuously shipping out to customers, and our South American dealer Timber has just brought their first machine to Chile for demos. The future is looking really bright and as a first step we are planning to double our production capacity for next year to meet the increasing demand.  Australia The first machine in Australia is in full production at Form Forest in Albany, Western Australia. After a million Euca-seedlings planted it is now planting Pine a little further up north.  Canada After planting for JDI for the last two planting seasons our prototype, the Plantma X, has just made a very successful demo in Amos, Quebec. Next season there will be more PlantMax planters at work in Canada and we are really excited about the future together with our good friends at Log Max Forestry in Moncton, NB.  Latvia In May we did a successful trial in Latvia for the State forests LVM. As always, everyone is happy with the planting results that are on par with, if not exceeding, manual planting. And the production capacity is certainly there so the conclusion was “there will be PlantMax machines planting in Latvia, it’s only a matter of time”. It was also stated that “this is the greatest step taken in forestry mechanization in 30 years”  Sweden In June we attended the IUFRO World Congress in Stockholm, Sweden, where forest scientists from all over the world gathered to share insights and discuss the future of forestry worldwide. It is obvious to everyone that forests are a key factor in battling climate change with sustainable forest management as well as large scale planting programs, and we are proud to be able to supply technology that can really make a difference in these operations.
