Forest ownership, timber harvesting and forest management

Timber harvesting and forest management is one of the primary business activities of WTK. To-date, our organization has forest concession areas in different parts of Sarawak. While carrying out our timber harvesting operations, steps are taken to ensure the astute management of the forest are in line with the ITTO's standard of forest management and FMU certification to attain the most sustainable yielding of a renewable forest resource. One significant step adopted by WTK to minimize the impact of harvesting operation on natural forest environment was the introduction of aerial harvesting using giant helicopter in 1993. WTK is the pioneer in the heli-harvesting operation of timber in Malaysia. Quality timber logs are selectively harvested and directly air-lifted by helicopter to the drop zone with no ground disturbances. Helicopter harvesting system is recognized and proven to be a low environmental impact harvesting system on the natural habitat of tropical rain forest. 

WTK group is currently using the technologically innovated low impact ground-based timber harvesting operation technique called "Logfishing". Its heavy-duty cable allows extraction of logs in hill forest area without constructing skid trails.
