ABOUT US
Whatever a forest or woodland owner’s objectives for their property entails, Tilhill is ideally placed to fulfil those requirements to the most professional of standards.
We have been in the forest management industry for 70 years. The first plantations we created have been harvested, replanted and are about due for harvesting again. In fact, some of our existing senior staff have been with us for as long as at least one full crop rotation and really do reap what they have sown. Our graduates on the other hand, are just planning and planting their first forests for the future.
Trees are at the heart of Tilhill. We help to purchase forests and woodlands, we design, plant, protect and maintain them, provide the engineering skills to access the timber contained within them then harvest for the best quality timber which we market to achieve the best price for our customers.
As an overlay to this work, we are also skilled at advising on and acquiring funding, as well as using the most up-to-date technology to survey and map the forests and woodlands. The integrity of the environment and the safety of our staff, contractors and the public is uppermost in everything we do.
