GA1 Certification for Forestry Cranes in Ireland

---

If you own or operate a timber forwarder in Ireland, you now need valid GA1 Certification for your forestry crane when working on Coillte timber extraction sites.

At Certify, we provide professional GA1 statutory inspection and certification for forestry cranes fitted to Timber Forwarders, Lorries, Tractors & Trailers, ensuring your equipment is fully compliant, safe, and ready for work.

We work directly with:

• Timber extraction contractors
• Timber harvesting contractors
• Forestry operators
• Forestry owners 

GA1 Certification is a statutory inspection and examination of lifting equipment, required under Irish safety legislation. Forestry cranes fitted to timber forwarders etc are classified as lifting equipment and must be examined and certified every 12 months.

Following inspection, you receive:

• A GA1 Report of Thorough Examination
• Certification confirming compliance
• Identification of any defects (if applicable)
• Clear guidance on corrective actions

Coillte now requires all forestry cranes operating on their timber extraction sites to hold valid GA1 Certification.

Without valid certification:

• You may not be permitted to operate on Coillte sites 
• Contracts may be delayed
• Work could be stopped due to non-compliance
   

We help ensure your timber forwarder crane meets all inspection requirements so you can continue operating without disruption.

Ensure your equipment is certified, compliant, and ready for site
