The technology gives rise to several environmental improvement measures. The investment is taking place through a directed new share issue pursuant to which Fouriertransform will become the largest individual shareholder. El-Forest’s forestry machine has a unique and patented track following and hybrid operation system which reduces fuel consumption, carbon dioxide emissions and reduces damage to forests due to the light weight of the machine.
