Nature is a partner we grow with – but never grow apart
At Dalgas, we develop and maintain what matters to you. The small outdoor areas and the large forest. The open land, the sea, and the city’s green oases. As part of Hedeselskabet, we have the experience and expertise to think long-term and act quickly. For you and your business. And for all of us.
You might know us as HedeDanmark…
…or HD Forest. Or HD LogSystems, HD BioRec, HD 2412, and HD Seed. Or maybe HD NordicTrees, and HD Silva.
Now we have merged our businesses into one: Dalgas – named after the founder of Hedeselskabet, which we are a part of. We do this to better help our customers solve today’s tasks and we create a sustainable future – partnering with nature.

Experiences from previous investor field trips to the Baltics
Dalgas has been managing forests in the Baltics since 1998. For a quarter of a century, the company has managed forests for several Danish and international investors from three offices in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.
The investment adviser has invested in forest
For the past 30 years, Gustav D. Lassen has advised both private individuals and financial institutions on investing in stocks. In his own portfolio, in addition to stocks, other asset classes are included, with Baltic forest being an important element.

With a complete service – from advice to implementation and monitoring – we ensure that the projects are based on the latest knowledge and best practices. We help realise ambitious ecosystem restoration projects, ensure compliance, and create visible results that strengthen your ESG profile and brand.
How we work with biodiversity
A digital and data-driven approach
At Dalgas, we create habitats where different species can thrive and contribute to a healthy and robust ecosystem. A diverse ecosystem that promotes both nature’s and people’s well-being.
We combine data, scientific knowledge, and practical experience to ensure that your biodiversity project has a positive and lasting impact on nature. Therefore, documentation and monitoring are central elements in our work. And you can use the data in your ESG reporting.
