The choice of materials by buyers certification in every market sector is now influenced by environmental concerns and to compete effectively, wood products must show their environmental credentials. In the timber trade, there is an increasing demand for FSC® and PEFC certified wood. Major companies and government bodies increasingly favour suppliers which offer chain of custody certification.
When you choose timber products, you aren’t just selecting a material; you’re making a choice for the planet’s future. Our commitment to sustainability is backed by the world’s two leading authorities on forest management: the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC®) and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). These global non-profit organizations provide the “gold standard” for environmental responsibility, ensuring that every piece of wood is traced back to a forest managed with the highest social and ecological standards. By adhering to these certifications, we guarantee that your project supports biodiversity, protects local communities, and ensures our forests remain vibrant for generations to come.
Chain of Custody certification, is an assessment from an independent, qualified expert who verifies in writing that the wood flow system applied by a business traces the flow of wood from certified forests through the business and meets the exacting requirements of the certification scheme.
In short Chain of Custody certification monitors the amount of timber a company buys from responsible and well managed sources. It traces and records the movement of all timber through the business and when the timber package is then sold to customers, it confirms all procedures have been followed by stating an FSC® certified products available on request or PEFC claim on sales documents.
Our raw materials are sustainable, responsibly purchased, and certified with either FSC® C134890 or PEFC/16-37-2672.
