Unbeatable in the Forest

Forest use

Throughout its history Valtra has been a reliable and expert partner in demanding forest conditions. The merger of Volvo and Valmet in 1979 also combined the excellent qualities of two quality Scandinavian brands.

The challenges posed by forestry work and the required product solutions have been focused kept in mind during the design process of every tractor model. Forest cab, TwinTrac reverse drive control, narrow mudguards, cross-ply forestry tyres with valve covers, Xenon lights and clean bottom make Valtra ideal for both harvesting and transporting timber, but also for chipping, mulching, forwarding and other forestry operations.
