The future of powersaw splitting (chainsaw milling) in Kenya
Up one levelPowersaws are commonly used in Kenya to split logs into timber but their use is rarely considered in national planning. Here it is suggested that chainsaws have an important part to play in supplying timber, and increasingly so through improvements in operator skill and the technologies employed, especially that of powersaw milling attachments. This is a policy brief aimed at organisations involved in timber production and processing in Kenya and East Africa at all levels including departments, institutes and bodies within government, NGOs, CBOs, international organisations and businesses involved in the manufacture, importation and distribution of associated equipment and machinery.
