By making your site index grow, we improve your productivity. By improving your productivity, we improve your profits. And to us, that's the bottom line.

CellFor's technology produces yield gains of 30 - 60% compared to 8 - 13% from traditional open pollinated seed orchards. For a forestry company with millions of dollars invested in their forest plantations, that increase translates into substantial profit.

This genetic gain is possible through Somatic embryogenesis 

A process of initiation and development of somatic embryos in vitro from somatic cells and tissues.

and CellFor's proprietary seed mass production system. CellFor's technology allows you to capture controlled pollinated seed from select parent trees, AND to select the very best individual trees for mass production (see Chart #2). Our technology allows you to avoid the limitations of traditional seed orchards and maximize the genetic gain on your forestlands.

Plantations grown from our seedlings generate higher yields over the same growing period (see Chart #3). Alternatively, our seedlings allow you to achieve the same yield over a shorter growth cycle. The end result is greater profits and stronger bottom line.

But that's just the beginning.

Somatic embryogenesis allows growers to achieve gains beyond the capabilities of conventional methods. This results in a plantation of trees that are more resistant to disease and pests, have improved tree form and superior wood quality.

This translates into greater efficiency and productivity in processing at every single stage - from the original planting to improved silviculture through thinning, harvesting, transporting and processing of the wood.

That's how we grow your Site Index, and your bottom line.
