Print Advertising



Costs and sizes For advert sizes and prices please select which publication you wish to advertise in, from either Forestry Journal or essentialARB. The specification sheets will open in a separate window and you can them save them locally for future reference.

Artwork specifications If you are providing your own print-ready artwork, we ideally require high resolution PDF files with all fonts embedded. All images within the PDF should be CMYK and a minimum of 300 dpi. Full colour advertisements must be created using the CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) colour mode. Please ensure any spot/Pantone colours used are converted to a process/CMYK value.

Artwork prepared by us We can prepare your advert for you, at no extra cost. Images supplied must be large enough to print at 300 dpi. Jpeg compression, if used, must be kept at a high level to ensure colour is not lost. Low resolution images cannot be accepted.

File preparation Create the dimensions of the document page the same as the actual size of the advert. Keep all text boxes and graphics completely within 10mm of the trim boundaries of the page. Please ensure all double and full page adverts contain at least 3mm bleed around each side of the advert.

Submission Text and images should ideally be emailed.

Copy deadline Copy deadlines for each edition can be found in the media pack.

Inserts and Sponsorship opportunities


We have several opportunities to help you to promote your business. All of our sponsorship packages can be tailored to fit your requirements and we welcome any ideas for new sponsorship opportunities.

Inserts Loose leaflets can be inserted into Forestry Journal and/or essentialARB. At certain times of the year, it is also possible to place inserts into the carrier bags that Forestry Journal hand out at various industry events.

Inserts can be an engaging and versatile way to grab the attention of your target market. In turn, this can encourage interactivity, retention and response.

Prices vary according to size and volume. For more information, contact our advertising department today.

Sponsorship Competition sponsorship From time to time within Forestry Journal and essentialARB we run reader competitions. Sponsoring these competitions is a low cost way of getting your company's name, or brand, in front of our readership. The concept is simple - you donate a prize of your choice relating to your product offering and we will design a competition around it, usually a simple word search, or a small quiz. The competition occupies a half page space in the magazine, with an image of the prize and approximately 300 words for you to promote your brand or product. It's a win-win situation for both you and our readers!

Carrier bag sponsorship You can't possibly have visited a major forestry event without noticing the sea of yellow carrier bags emblazoned with the Forestry Journal and essentialARB logos. Having your advertising on the reverse side of this carrier bag is a very effective way of getting your message to literally thousands of people. This is a limited opportunity, so please contact us if you would like to discuss it further.

Lets look forward to APF 2024



Established in 1994, Forestry Journal & essentialARB continue to be the number one magazines for our industries. We are proud, once again, to be the media sponsors of the 2024 APF exhibition which takes place in September. As media sponsor we will be producing the show catalogue which is given out to all visitors to the show. Over 16,000 visitors are expected to attend. The catalogue is used by visitors on the day to plan their way round the show and is kept by many as a who's who guide to the industry and the products that are on offer. Advertising space in both the APF catalogue and Forestry Journal is always in great demand. More than two thirds of the available space in the 2024 catalogue is already sold; the August essentialARB and August and September issues of Forestry Journal are filling up quickly too. To make sure you reach this highly relevant audience, book now to avoid disappointment.
