In 2007, Per Erik Sj\u00f6str\u00f6m founded the forestry company Hummelbo Skogsenergi AB. The forest has always been an important part of Per Erik\u2019s life, and it\u2019s also where he spends the majority of his time. The forest he owns today has been passed down through many generations.<\/p>\n\n

– There\u2019s something special about the forest. I think I\u2019d have trouble working with anything else where you\u2019re not able to be outdoors in the same way. Even when I\u2019m not working, I\u2019m in the forest as much as I can be, Per Erik explains.<\/em><\/p>\n\n

Today, Per Erik has ten employees and six machines, five of which are from Eco Log. The plan is for his son, Magnus, who recently joined the company, to eventually take over the business.– He seems to be interested in doing so, and that feels pretty good, says Per Erik.<\/em><\/p>\n\n

Magnus Sj\u00f6str\u00f6m, now thirty-two years old, has spent the past thirteen years working in the forest, although forest machines have been a part of his life since childhood.– I can remember how I\u2019d lay on the decking and play with my toy machines. I\u2019d stand dog biscuits on end that I could fell and forward. Now I have a son of my own who\u2019s just over a year old. It\u2019ll be interesting to see whether he too wants to get involved in forestry in the future, comments Magnus.<\/em><\/p>\n\n

Before Magnus joined his dad\u2019s company, he operated harvesters from other manufacturers. Moving to Eco Log, though, was easier than he thought it would be.-The pendulum arms were the biggest difference in the beginning. It feels a little unusual at first, but once you get the hang of it, it\u2019s just great. You can level the machine and navigate almost anywhere, even places where you probably wouldn\u2019t want to walk. The crane is extremely powerful as well, so you can get a lot done with a harvester like this, says Magnus.<\/em><\/p>\n\n

In addition to the machine\u2019s handling, Magnus appreciates the contact he has with Eco Log as a supplier.– You develop a more personal relationship with a company that isn\u2019t that big. Machines break down, and then that contact gives you peace of mind, knowing that the support works in warranty claims, service, and the like. When we last visited Skogsnolia [Swedish forestry trade fair], the thing that most struck me was the family atmosphere at Eco Log. As a customer, I find that a real strength,\u201d Magnus ends.<\/em><\/p>\n\n
