In its commitment to renewable energy and environmental sustainability, Westfield Tree Services Limited has made a significant investment in the purchase of two biomass wood fuel boilers based at the Horrobin Farm site.

• Biomass wood fuel heavy duty chipper producing the required grade of biomass wood fuel.
• Biomass wood fuel 148 cubic yard, (100m?) trailers with walking floor for the safe ejection of biomass wood fuel.  Walking floor trailers remove the safety concerns associated with tipping large trailers and allow access to restricted height areas.
