Since 2006 DC Equipment has been providing a wide range of maintenance and repair services to logging crews throughout the Nelson Marlborough region. Machine downtime in forestry directly affects crew targets and profitability. Our aim is to reduce the impact of production downtime as much as possible. Based out of our Brightwater workshop, we have a team of on call mobile maintenance and repair staff as well as with full time mechanics, machining and engineering staff for larger workshop based repairs. We also stock and sell Falcon Forestry Equipment parts along with a range of Yarder, Waratah Processing and SATCO Felling head parts. For more information click on the appropriate area below.
