Exporting to the European
Union (EUDR)

EUDR-ready hardwood shipments with full geolocation traceability.

The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) requires importers to prove legality and deforestation-free origin.We provide all data needed for your Due Diligence Statement, including:

  • Harvest geolocation coordinates or polygons
  • Species and volume data
  • Chain-of-custody records
  • Phytosanitary certification when required

Our EUDR data pack ensures your importer can file documentation confidently and quickly.

Tracebility (4)

Exporting to the United
Kingdom (UKTR)

Fully compliant with UK Timber Regulation (UKTR)

UK importers must operate a Due Diligence System (DDS) to assess risk and legality.

We simplify this with:

  • A complete legality and traceability dossier
  • Harvest and species documentation
  • Kiln and treatment certificates
  • Phytosanitary records where applicable

Every load is pre-verified to UKTR standards for a seamless import process.
