We are experts in this and can help our clients to maintain an efficient database of tree care measures that also comply with financial or environmental constraints.

We offer:

  • the set-up and appraisal of tree inventories

  • training for staff to become arbocert tree inspectors

Ecological construction planning and building work supervision


Between the villages of Wessling and Seefeld in Upper Bavaria there is an approximately 250-year-old, around 3 kilometer-long avenue of oak trees. The last remaining part of the cycle route, which had needed a lot of planning, was due to be completed in 2006.

Pinos Centenarios, Gran Canaria

Pinos Centenarios, Gran Canaria
Pinos Centenarios, Gran Canaria

After a forest fire on Gran Canaria, several over 100-year-old pine trees were completely burnt out on the inside. This species is endemic to the island and, due to its extremely thick bark, has the astounding ability to regenerate after a fire. Trees which become completely charred are able to sprout green shoots again from the stem.
