Europe Forestry to represent Precision Husky in Europe

Europe Forestry will sell and service all of Precision Husky’s equipment in locations in Europe, including the Scandinavian and Baltic market.

The complete Precision Husky line of equipment includes ten models of tub grinders and six models of horizontal grinders. These units are available with engines from 100 hp to 1100 hp.

The company manufacturers stationary chippers from the smallest to the largest and from 50 hp to 3500 hp, along with four major sizes of mobile Whole Tree Chippers. Precision Husky Corporation may be the largest manufacturer of sawmill chippers in the world, according to Precision’s Chairman & CEO, Bob Smith.

Along with its line of Husky knuckle boom loaders, Precision also manufactures two distinct models of flail debarkers – Model 2300 two-flail unit designed primarily for short wood, and Model 2300-4 four-flail unit. The four-flail units are designed primarily for the eucalyptus plantations that now stretch literally around the world.

They are capable of debarking multiple stems at 175 feet per minute (53m/minute) with an average bark content of three-tenths of 1%. Smith stated that he believes, “No other debarker on the market today can achieve these results.”

Precision Husky Corporation, Leeds, Alabama, was started in 1964 and has for nearly forty-eight years designed and manufactured equipment for chip mills, sawmills, wood yards, log loading and in-woods debarking/chipping and wood waste grinding.

The company currently provides employment for more than 100 workers in its 165,000 sq. ft. headquarters in Leeds, Alabama, and recently purchased a 35,000 sq. ft. second facility in Lynn, Alabama.

Headquartered in the Netherlands, Europe Forestry has provided the highest quality equipment, parts, and services for loggers, contractors, mills, and municipalities throughout Europe for many years.Europe Recycling started in Europe in the year 2004; however, they have put up this separate company, Europe Forestry, to sell Precision Husky equipment.

Jan Veurink and Erjen Stoevelaar, managing directors of the company, said in the announcement, “Europe Forestry has always offered top-of-the-line equipment and we believe the quality of Precision’s equipment speaks for itself.”
