ABP is committed to excellence in growing, harvesting and marketing sustainable plantation resources.
ABP strives for continuous improvement in our plantation management ‒ researching, developing and implementing innovative practices which result in the production of consistently high quality wood chips.
An extensive planning process precedes harvest. The application of advanced harvest methods and the engagement of experienced local contractors are integral to this critical stage of ABP operations.
ABP premium woodchips, destined for export to customers in China and Japan, are transported in customised woodchip trailers for loading at our upgraded port facilities in Western Australia and Victoria.
Informed land selection and acquisition, whether leasehold or freehold, is foundational to the long term sustainability of our operations. This process is underpinned by the combined expertise of our estate managers and research and development team.
ABP marketing specialists play a critical role in developing and maintaining relationships with our overseas buyers. For effective engagement with our customers we have staff based in Melbourne and Qingdao, China.
