Paul Vidgen Forest Machines Ltd

Paul Vidgen Forest Machines has been set up as a one stop source of top quality equipment for the forestry, land clearance and bioenergy industries.

Offering the very best from Ahwi/Prinoth for Mulchers, Stump Grinders, Rotovators and of course the industry standard RT tracked carriers. Paul is the sole UK importer for Ahwi (now called Prinoth) and has been dealing with the German manufacturer for 15 years! Paul works closely with Ahwi Prinoth on product development and field testing and has unrivalled knowledge in the mulching and land clearing industry. As a contractor he operated the first tracked self-propelled mulcher in the UK. The first new RT800 Raptor has been supplied to a customer in the north of England with some very special modifications; we will have news of this soon.

Naturatec are a young company based in the south of Germany. As well as being, like us, dealers for Ahwi Prinoth they also manufacturer the Unicut range of tree shears. These are in our opinion some of the best designed shears on the market, being light, built from high tensile steel and with the option of full 360deg rotation. Two sizes are available, the 300, for excavators from 8 to 20 tonnes and a cutting capacity of 35cm as well as the larger 500 for machines of 16 to 35 tonnes and a 40cm capacity. Naturatec also offer a heavy duty stone crusher, the SC800 for tractors up to 400hp. This massively built unit is ideal for construction and maintenance of farm and forestry roads, an integral screen allows the operator to choose the fraction size of the crushed material.

Newly added to our product range are forestry Scarifiers form UOT Forest, there are units available in 4 sizes for tractors and forwarder mounting, we have a demo unit available for trial. Made in Latvia they offer great quality at a realistic price.

Paul Vidgen Forest Machines can also supply a range of new and used equipment for special tasks and carry out repairs and modifications to customer’s machines.
