FORESTRY QUALITY
Modern forestry demands a holistic approach. With high productivity, low operating
costs and innovative technology. With good ergonomics and a long-term approach to
ecology. And with a responsive combination of service and customer care.

We summarise all of this as Forestry Quality – the quality required in the forest. This ho-
listic approach permeates everything we do, and we have but a single focus: your work-
ing day. We strive to ensure that machine owners and operators always feel that their
relationship with Komatsu Forest is characterised by closeness, knowledge and peace
of mind. That we understand your situation and use all of our experience, expertise and
capacity to fulfil your needs.

And yes, it is true that Komatsu Forest’s technologically advanced harvesters, forward-
ers and heads continually push the envelope for what can be achieved with a modern
forest machine. Equally true is that our integrated information systems and proactive
service and support create new opportunities for long-term profitability.

However, at its core, Komatsu Forest’s promise concerns the whole. And the combined
advantages offered throughout the entire production chain and the machine’s entire
service life. Today and tomorrow.

That is Forestry Quality.
