Arwel takes great pride in the fact that the mill has no waste whatsoever, “the peelings are used for children’s playgrounds, gardens and for farm animals in barns in the winter and the sawdust has multiple uses in gardens and farms as well.

Timber hauliers need to encourage young blood in, and also look after the hauliers we have, we need make the sector a safe and positive place to work.
Find Us On
From our workshop near Tarbolton, Ayrshire, we have developed Low Ground Pressure machinery to haul timber from hard to reach places where conventional extraction methods either cannot be used or are too expensive to use. We have now successfully moved 100s of thousands of tons from these sometimes inaccessible areas making this timber available to market. Our machines are built to extract timber as safely and reliably as possible.
Due to there being no machines on sale for this task we have had to build and adapt our own. This has given us great experience in building timber bodies/trailers for a huge array of different machinery. We aim to keep our engineering in line with manufacturers standards and can provide designs for manufacturer approval.
“There’s no such things as problems, only solutions you haven’t found yet.”
