About this Certification
The FOREST STEWARDSHIP COUNCIL ™(FSC®) is a non profit organization created in response to growing concerns over deforestation.
Founded in 1993, it is globally recognised today for the promotion of forest certification.
FSC® Certification is a voluntary standard aimed at supporting responsible forest management on a global scale. All FSC® certified forest products have been verified throughout their supply chains – from their origin to their final destination.
Who can benefit?
1. FSC® FOREST MANAGEMENT
FSC® Forest Management Certification is for companies that manage or own forest resources and would like to establish and communicate their responsible practices to consumers.
2. CHAIN OF CUSTODY FSC
Chain of Custody FSC® Certification is for any company handling or using FSC® certified forest products (i.e.furniture manufacturers, publishers, pulp industries, and all other wood products) to attest to the wood’s traceability and legal origin and can use the FSC® trademark.
Becoming Chain of Custody FSC® certified means your clients also dispose the right to use the FSC® certified trademark on their products, provided they hold their own certificate.
