Roading

Roading

The backbone of our operations on the farm is the extensive network of roads and tracks. The expansion and maintenance are managed by our in house roading and projects crew:

  • Our in-house roading crew enables us to provide good infrastructure for our farm and forestry operation
  • High standards of our track- and road network guarantee a high health & safety level
  • All year-round maintenance and new roads increase our productivity
  • Modern machinery enables us to build long lasting roads
  • This team gives us operational flexibility in case of emergencies or “new projects”
Good and well-maintained infrastructure is an important aspect for a safe and successful operation. This is one of the reasons why we have decided to establish our own roading and projects crew. It has also always been quite difficult finding suitable contractors in the region for this kind of work in a timely fashion.
New and improved roads and tracks do not only allow us to work more efficiently and safely, but also ensure all year-round access to all corners of the farm and forests. Our crew consists of four permanent employees who have a variety of machines, such as excavators, dozers, dump trucks, graders and rollers at their disposal.
Alongside road work, the team also carries out other tasks that are necessary on the farm. This can be preparation of areas for Manuka-plantations, creating a pond system for our Koura-project or processing aggregate for third-party.
