What is PEFC?

The Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) is the world’s largest forest certification system. A PEFC Chain of Custody (CoC) certification ensures that timber, paper, and packaging products are sourced from sustainably managed forests and can be traced throughout the supply chain.

Why Work Toward PEFC Certification?

  • Demonstrate commitment to legal and sustainable sourcing.
  • Build trust with customers and meet procurement requirements.
  • Access new markets and supply chains that require PEFC-certified materials.
  • Strengthen your reputation as a responsible and forward-looking business.

What is FSC?

The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) sets globally recognized standards for responsible forest management. An FSC Chain of Custody (CoC) certification verifies that wood, paper, and packaging materials are tracked through every stage of production — from forest to final product — ensuring legality, sustainability, and traceability.

Why Work Toward FSC Certification?

  • Show commitment to sustainable sourcing and responsible forestry.
  • Meet the requirements of buyers, regulators, and international supply chains.
  • Strengthen your reputation with customers demanding environmentally responsible products.
