Timbtrack

What Timbtrack does

Timbtrack (legal entity: International Business Renaissance SA / IBR SA, a Belgian société anonyme) is a vertically integrated forest management and traceability software platform headquartered in La Hulpe, Belgium, with a French commercial base in Rennes. Founded in 2014 by CEO Quentin d'Huart, the company digitises forestry operations for forest owners, professional forest managers, forestry operators, sawmills, wood processors, and municipalities across BENELUX and France. Its core offering is a cloud-based SaaS web platform (app.timbtrack.com) coupled with a native Android mobile application that performs GNSS-geolocated tree and parcel inventory, with offline map synchronisation. The platform is purpose-built for the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR/RDUE) and integrates RFID-based log tagging (proprietary tags co-developed with Axem Technology), GPS, satellite imagery, and IoT field inventory into an end-to-end traceability workflow from standing tree through sawmill output.

The business operates three revenue streams: (1) annual SaaS subscriptions (12-month terms paid monthly in advance, with index-based annual price escalation), (2) hardware sales of Juniper Systems ruggedised Android tablets (Archer 4, Cedar CT8X2, Mesa 3) plus RFID tags, RFID gates/portals, and antennas, and (3) custom software development and API integration services. Go-to-market is hybrid: a freemium entry licence (€0/year) drives product-led acquisition among individual forest owners and small operators, while dedicated field-sales representatives (Thomas Castadot for BENELUX, Loïc Plauche Gillon for France) handle enterprise and mid-market accounts including sawmills, wood processors, and the Fédération Nationale du Bois. Distribution is augmented by a partnership with the FNB as a referral channel in France and by Juniper Systems as the exclusive forestry-market reseller of rugged tablets.

Strategically, Timbtrack is positioning itself as the Belgian leader in digital forest management, with EUDR compliance as a regulatory tailwind driving platform adoption. The company is privately held, founder-controlled, has not raised external venture capital, and operates with a headcount in the 1-10 range across Belgium and France. It is also a participant in the EU-funded SWIFFT consortium (grant agreement 101082732), an 8-entity, 3-year satellite-based forest threat monitoring initiative running through 2026.

Core offering

Timbtrack sells a cloud-based forest management SaaS platform with a native Android mobile application, complemented by proprietary RFID forestry tags, RFID porticos/gates, and rugged Android tablets. The platform enables geolocated tree-by-tree forest inventory, RFID-based log traceability from forest to sawmill, automated EUDR/RDUE compliance, satellite-based forest health and carbon analysis, and IoT inventory services for forest owners, sawmills, wood processors, and municipal green-space managers.

Product overview

Timbtrack is a Belgian company offering a unified forest management platform consisting of a web-based SaaS platform (Plateforme Web Timbtrack) and a native Android mobile application, both working in conjunction with specialized hardware including RFID forestry tags, rugged tablets (Juniper Archer 4, Cedar CT8X2, Mesa 3), and RFID gates/portals. The platform provides core services including EUDR (EU Deforestation Regulation) traceability through RFID and GPS technology, satellite-based forest inventory and health analysis, IoT inventory services, and custom development/API integration capabilities. A free Freemium tier provides basic forest asset management, while paid features include satellite technologies, traceability compliance, and tailored development services. The system connects field operators through GNSS geolocation and mobile data collection, with data centralized for heritage management and economic optimization across the forestry supply chain.

Partnerships

Five partnerships are on record, tiered core, flagship and minor.

• Axem TechnologycoreTechnology or IntegrationAxem Technology, a French RFID expert company, co-developed the Timbtrack RFID forest tags in collaboration with Timbtrack. The partnership combined Axem's expertise in radio frequency identification chip design for challenging environments with Timbtrack's forestry platform, resulting in IP65-rated, temperature- and shock-resistant RFID tags suitable for log tagging throughout the supply chain.
• SWIFFT Consortium (7 other European entities)flagshipStrategic or Co-development PartnerTimbtrack is one of 8 European companies and researchers in the SWIFFT project — a 3-year EU-funded initiative (grant agreement 101082732) focused on creating an automated satellite-based system for monitoring threats to European forests (insect invasions, fires, windthrow). The consortium aims to provide early warning tools to combat climate change and preserve biodiversity.
• Juniper SystemscoreTechnology or IntegrationJuniper Systems manufactures ruggedised Android tablets (Archer 4, Mesa 3) that Timbtrack integrates with its platform and distributes exclusively for the forestry market. These devices are certified IP68/MIL-STD-810H and equipped with UHF RFID readers and high-accuracy GNSS, enabling Timbtrack's field data collection capabilities.
• Fédération Nationale du Bois (FNB)coreGTM or Marketing PartnerThe Fédération Nationale du Bois (FNB), France's national wood industry federation, is listed as a Timbtrack customer and partner. The FNB supports sawmills and wood processors across France and works with Timbtrack to help members achieve EUDR compliance.
• SylviacareminorStrategic or Co-development PartnerSylviacare is a solution for early detection and precise geolocation of wildfire outbreaks in natural environments. Timbtrack references Sylviacare as a related initiative within its custom development and forest technology ecosystem, indicating collaborative visibility in the fire-risk monitoring space.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights7 records

Emerging players

• Sourcemap: Supply-chain traceability and due-diligence software used across multiple commodities, including timber. Adjacent peer to Timbtrack on the EUDR compliance and traceability layer, but commodity-agnostic and not forestry-specialised.
• TreePlotter: Forest inventory and urban-tree management software focused on tree-by-tree data collection. Comparable to Timbtrack's native field application for standing and roadside tree inventories and its municipal tree-heritage use case (e.g., Le Teil).

Broad incumbents

• Trimble Forestry: Trimble's forestry division offers forest inventory, harvesting and land-management software globally. It overlaps with Timbtrack on geolocated forest asset management and compliance workflows but operates as part of a much broader geospatial and agriculture technology portfolio.

Regional players

• InSilico Forest: Slovenian forestry management software provider serving Central and South-Eastern European forest owners. Comparable persona and inventory functionality to Timbtrack, though with less emphasis on RFID traceability and EUDR.
• Assisi Software: Brazilian forestry management software platform with operations across Latin America. Comparable functionality to Timbtrack (inventory, harvesting, traceability) but focused on tropical forestry and Latin American markets rather than European EUDR compliance.

Others

• Juniper Systems: Manufacturer of rugged Android/Windows tablets used in forestry, agriculture and other field-data industries. Timbtrack distributes Juniper hardware for the forestry market, making Juniper an ecosystem partner and indirect peer in field-data collection hardware.
• Axem Technology: French RFID hardware specialist and Timbtrack's partner in developing the proprietary forestry tags. Comparable as a technology supplier in the same ecosystem, and an indirect competitor in industrial RFID deployments.

Direct peers

• Spatial Dimension (Verisk): Provider of land and natural-resource management software (now part of Verisk) used by governments and forest operators. Overlaps with Timbtrack on cadastral parcel management, regulatory compliance and forestry asset workflows.
• PlanIT Geo: Forestry inventory and management software used by consulting foresters and landowners in North America. Comparable to Timbtrack's parcel-level forest management capabilities, including inventory, maps and reporting, with similar target personas.
• FBS (Forest Business Systems): Swedish forestry ERP and timber-trade software provider serving sawmills and forest owners across Northern Europe. Comparable to Timbtrack in targeting the wood-supply chain with integrated business management, though Timbtrack is more differentiated around RFID-based traceability and EUDR compliance.
