Forestry and wildfire mitigation go hand in hand.

We’ve been leveraging our team’s skillsets and developing specialized equipment to manage forests around homes and communities for greater fire resilience.

With our core forestry and heli experience combined with an amazing team of utility arborists, climbers, fallers and tree professionals, IOG has been helping to protect BC’s utility grid from tree-related hazards for years.

Manual tree work is one of our foundational elements. From commercial windfirming and single-stem, to falling and tree hazard mitigation, our team has climbed or worked on some of the most challenging trees, in some of the harshest environments in BC.

Tackling tough tree projects safely and productively is what we do.

IOG is leading a resurgence in true commercial thinning in BC.

Utilizing European-inspired technology and processes, we're helping to change the way BC thinks about ground-based forest harvesting. 

Utilizing helicopters for forestry projects is a big part of what we do.

From getting to work to flying logs, helicopters have been integral to our business since our inception. Our deep understanding of costs and capacities as well as partnerships with BC’s main heli operators is what sets us apart from others.
