App for easy and fast timber purchase and selling

Forstify is a forestry industry start-up. The timber market liberalisation inspired the founders to build up a company with bundled competences from the commercial and technical areas that brings together suppliers and buyers of wood in a simple, user-friendly way. The company is established on the market and supports forest owners and buyers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. In addition to the pure platform, Forstify also offers direct purchase of insect-infested timber (bark beetle) and handles marketing directly as a service. New topics include a wood measurement feature within the mobile app, easy import and organization of log lists, automatic notifications about new regional offerings, a payment feature and additional consulting and services around wood sales. Using the online marketplace, suppliers and buyers of timber can enter into an exchange easily, quickly and free of charge. In doing so, requirements of the forestry industry are combined with the possibilities of modern internet technologies.

Target groups include: Private and public forest owners, forest enterprises, forest enterprise associations (FBG), forest owner associations (WBV), roundwood traders & exporters, timber marketers, firewood buyers, sawmills, paper mills, timber industry, traders, energy wood processors.
