The benefits of Brash Removal Services

Increasing demand for biomass provides opportunities to recover brash and harvest wood from felling sites. Brash is a mix of treetop branches that often remains on site after felling – the foliage, branches and the tree’s crown. Often called lop and top, brash has traditionally been left on the site or perhaps heaped up and burned.

Brash usually comes from:

  • small scale site excavations
  • tree surgeries
  • woodland management in areas surrounding railways and roads
  • new building developments
Brash removal and recovery by Woodyfuel

Especially during new building developments, project managers often do not want biomass to be abandoned to decompose. Brash removal reduces many of the slip and trip hazards found on harvested sites, making planting and maintenance operations safer and more visually appealing.

Destroying these mounds yourself may cause damage in the surrounding area. This is because biomass can release extremely potent natural gases and, if removed incorrectly, it can negatively impact the environment.
