Forest management certification gives the public peace of mind that wood products are managed responsibly and sustainably, something that is becoming increasingly important.
Responsible and sustainable forest management has become a vital issue in the last decade.
Inadequate forest management practices are threatening the long-term viability of many forests and this significantly reduces their economic potential, resulting in negative social and environmental impacts.
Public awareness and demand for certified wood products is growing, and Forest Stewardship Certification provides the necessary reassurance that sustainable products are managed responsibly and sustainably.
Manufacturers and suppliers who want to guarantee that their wood products come from a certified forest, and who want to pass this guarantee on to the end user, need to prove the origin of this wood. This is achieved through Chain of Custody (CoC) certification.
Control Union Certifications is an independent certification body that carries out inspections, audits, verifications and certifications of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), PEFC Council (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification Schemes). It is accredited for these schemes by ASI (Accreditation Services International).
How do you benefit?Forest managers and forest owners who ignore sustainability issues make themselves very vulnerable. Their over-exploitation leads to serious depletion of natural resources and further public criticism. That is why more and more managers and owners seek Forest Management certification.
Control Union Certifications has a global network of offices around the world through which you can contact for certification. This allows us to make our work more efficient and profitable for our clients.
