Why Timber Traceability Demands More
Timber supply chains face unique regulatory scrutiny. Proving deforestation-free sourcing requires geospatial evidence, species verification, and unbroken chain-of-custody from forest to market.
Deforestation Verification
Proving timber was harvested from land that was not deforested after regulatory cut-off dates requires precise geospatial evidence and satellite cross-referencing.
Complex Chain of Custody
Wood passes through multiple hands — harvesters, sawmills, processing plants, and distributors — each introducing the risk of traceability breaks.
Legal Compliance Across Jurisdictions
Timber exports must comply with the laws of the country of origin and the importing market — covering land use rights, harvesting permits, and environmental protections.
Due Diligence Documentation
EUDR requires operators to submit due diligence statements with geolocation data, species identification, and supply chain records before placing products on the EU market.
[ Platform Features ]
Purpose-Built for Timber & Forestry
From concession mapping to export documentation — every tool you need to maintain compliant timber supply chains.
Concession & Plot Mapping
Capture GPS polygon boundaries for forestry concessions and individual harvest plots. Overlay with satellite deforestation data to verify compliance with cut-off dates.
Log-Level Tracking
Assign unique identifiers to individual logs and track them through every stage — from felling to sawmill to finished product. Full chain-of-custody at the unit level.
Sawmill & Processing Records
Document every transformation step with input-output reconciliation. Link sawn timber, veneer, and finished products back to their source concessions.
Compliance Scoring
Real-time readiness scores covering geolocation coverage, documentation completeness, species verification, and regulatory alignment for every shipment.
DDS & Export Documentation
Automatically generate Due Diligence Statements and export dossiers formatted for the EU Information System, FLEGT licensing, and destination-market requirements.
Risk Assessment Engine
Automated risk classification based on country risk levels, concession history, species vulnerability, and documentation gaps with actionable remediation guidance.
