Guidance
Authorised processors for Ips typographus and Phytophthora pluvialis
Find a company authorised for handling wood and material affected by Ips typographus or Phytophthora pluvialis.
There are limitations on the handling of material infected with Ips typographus or Phytophthora pluvialis.
Infected material can only be moved to a processer authorised to receive and process that infected material.
Ips typographus authorised processers
All businesses listed here are authorised to accept low risk spruce roundwood that has passed a movement authorisation inspection.
High risk spruce material identified through a Statutory Plant Health Notice (SPHN) must be chipped to G50 on the site where it originates and must be moved to an authorised processor if being transported outside of the demarcated area.
Find out more about the SPHN process for Ips typographus.
