Forester Crane

Real Tests Start Outside

This is not a showroom demonstration. It is a video from one of our customers, showing a loaded forestry trailer working through real mud.

Driving into the forest is the easy part. Loading the timber and bringing it back out through soft ground and deep ruts is where equipment proves what it is made of.

Forester was shaped by Estonia, where frozen ground today can become deep mud tomorrow, and hard forestry work continues through every season. These conditions taught us that forestry equipment needs robust construction, practical engineering and no unnecessary complexity.

That means reinforced construction for changing loads on uneven ground, high strength without unnecessary weight to preserve mobility on soft terrain, and straightforward design that makes servicing and repairs easier even far from a workshop.

Showrooms make equipment look good. Mud tells the truth.

The forest shows no mercy to weak equipment.

Heavy loads, boggy ground, sudden impacts and constant vibration push forestry machinery to its limits. If the structure cannot handle these forces, the forest will find its weakest point sooner or later.

That is why Forester uses high-strength structural steel from SSAB. Today known as Strenx®, and building on the proven legacy of Weldox®, this steel is available in grades with yield strengths from 600 to 1,300 MPa. Combining high strength, impact toughness and weldability, this steel helps load-bearing components withstand the repeated stress, vibration and sudden impacts that reveal every weakness in forestry machinery.

For forestry machinery, this means strong components capable of handling demanding dynamic loads without adding unnecessary weight. Put simply, you want to bring more timber out of the forest, not more steel into it.

But premium steel is only the beginning.
At Forester, we combine the right material with skilled welding
and straightforward engineering to build equipment that is strong, practical, wear-resistant and easy to maintain.

Built to Stay Useful, Not Stay in the Workshop.

So, if one cylinder on the trailer and two on the crane ever need replacing, you will already have the necessary parts at hand. And if, against all odds, all yours cylinders decide to take the day off at once, you will still be prepared.
