Whether you manage a commercial timber plantation, work in woodland maintenance, or operate specialist forestry machinery, your business faces unique risks. Forestry insurance provides tailored cover towards protecting your people, equipment, and livelihood from financial loss caused by accidents, damage, or unexpected events.

Why Forestry Insurance is Essential

Forestry work can be unpredictable, with hazards ranging from heavy machinery accidents to extreme weather events. Some risks that you may be faced with are:

• Damage to forestry machinery such as harvesters, skidders, and forwarders
• Injury to workers from chainsaw use or falling timber
• Fire, storm, and flood damage affecting timber stocks or infrastructure
• Liability claims from third parties for injury or property damage
• Loss or theft of tools and equipment on-site or in storage

What’s Covered Under Forestry Insurance?

A customised policy can cover a wide range of forestry activities and assets, including:

• Machinery insurance for harvesters, loaders, tractors, and chippers
• Public liability for injury or damage to third parties
• Employers’ liability to meet legal requirements when you have staff, volunteers or work experience
• Timber stock cover for standing and felled timber
• Buildings and storage cover for workshops, sheds, and timber yards
• Business interruption cover for income loss after insured events
