Simply put, we provide better seedlings.

As one of the world's leading forestry biotechnology companies, we have developed reliable, proven, and patented technology that delivers dramatic productivity gains to forest land owners and managers.

For small growers and large global forestry companies alike, building a lucrative business starts with a firm foundation. It requires seedlings that will generate predictable, reliable sources of financial return many years down the road.

That's where CellFor comes in. Our technology provides dramatically improved genetic gain, improved wood uniformity and quality, increased resistance to disease and most importantly, greater yield.

The technology is called " Somatic embryogenesis"...

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

 

...and while the concept is simple, the science is complex. Through somatic embryogenesis, we're able to produce large quantities of improved seedlings that deliver tree growth and other benefits far exceeding tree orchards or other traditional approaches.

For growers, that translates into a greater supply of wood with more desirable characteristics like straight grain, size uniformity, increased wood fiber, and better overall wood quality. For processors, the result is lower processing costs, more consistent wood supply, better operating efficiencies, and better utilization of capital assets, particularly in managing land portfolios.

At CellFor, we don't just grow seedlings. We help our customers grow profits.

But there's another important benefit to CellFor's technology. By improving the productivity of forestry farming, we help produce more and better wood from less land. Forest stewardship is a core value at CellFor. We believe our technology will help protect our natural forests for generations to come.
