GREEN BELT INVESTMENTS LIMITED

Green Belt Investments Limited is a specialist provider of sustainable forestry and woodland creation services, working closely with forest owners throughout Ireland. Since 1982 the company has overseen the planting of more than 600 million trees, combining a nationwide professional forestry network with hands-on management to turn woodland assets into long-term, profitable resources.

The firm offers a full suite of services, from guiding clients through the afforestation application process to delivering planting, road building, harvesting and re-planting operations. Key specialisations include accessing exchequer-backed planting grants and premiums, agro-forestry schemes that allow landowners to farm while receiving tax-free payments, and the Native Tree Area Scheme which permits up to two hectares of afforestation without a licence. Green Belt also assists owners looking to sell their forest, prepares Forestry Management Plans and Environmental Impact Statements, and provides carbon-and-biodiversity measurement to support nature-based solutions and climate-target goals.

With a legacy of large-scale tree planting and a commitment to partnership, Green Belt helps clients maximise the ecological and financial value of their woodland assets while contributing to Ireland's ambition to raise forest cover to 18 %.
