From tradition into the future
By tradition into the future
We are cutting and harvesting wood in the third generation! Like many others, we wanted to harvest the precious commodity - wood - but which tool to use? With which machine? Is the effort paying?
This is exactly where we started and pushed our limits! The complex development resulted in a tailor-made product that stands for easier forestry work, efficiency, know-how, success, sustainability and safety, but above all is built for the practice.
HAFO GmbH and its products were created directly from practice.

About HAFO
We are 4 brothers within a large family (5 boys and 1 girl) and as long as we can remember our father has taken us into the forest and taught us how to use the forestry machinery. We learned, that forestry work is associated with hard physical exertion. But over the years we were thinking that you don't have to come home exhausted in the evening to be proud of your performance. There had to be a way to work more efficiently.
So we came up with the hydraulic winches. Where we used to need two or three of us, we now can handle the wood alone and even faster.
