Preventive forestry in Mallorca: vegetation management for fire prevention in line with Balearic regulations. Our own team. Free quote.
Preventive forestry consists of managing the vegetation on woodland or mixed plots to reduce the risk of fire. In the Balearic Islands there are specific regulations requiring owners of wooded land to maintain safety strips and biomass-management areas. Failure to comply can lead to fines and, in the event of a fire, civil liability.
Management and reduction of combustible biomass on woodland plots
Creation and maintenance of safety strips
Removal of high-risk dry vegetation
Pruning of pines and trees to raise the forest canopy
Documentation of the work carried out to prove compliance
Work on estates of any size and topography
Preventive forestry has a specific aim regulated by law: reducing the risk of fire in woodland areas or the wildland-urban interface. It is not simply a cosmetic clear-up: the work follows specific technical forest-management criteria and may be necessary to meet the owner's legal obligations. If your estate is in woodland or borders woodland, talk to us about your prevention obligations too.
