ABOUT US

Forestry mulching is a land clearing method that uses a single machine to cut, grind, and clear vegetation.
A forestry mulching machine, also referred to as a forestry mulcher, masticator, or brush cutter, uses a rotary drum equipped with steel chipper tools("teeth") to shred vegetation. They are manufactured as application-specific tractors and as mulching attachments ("mulching heads") for existing tracked and rubber-tired forestry tractors, skid steers, or excavators.
​
By processing trees and other vegetation where they stand, mulchers eliminate many of the steps involved in land clearing such as burning, cutting, hauling, and site cleanup. This also eliminates using multiple machines such as bulldozers, excavators, tree shears, wood chippers or grinders, and hauling equipment.
​
Some mulchers also have the ability to operate on steep slopes and in small or tight areas, in poor ground conditions and in wet or snowy weather.
