The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is an international, non-profit organization that promotes forest management in environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable ways. In order to attain their objectives, FSC develops standards, performs independent audits and certifies enterprises which satisfy a certain set of requirements. Certified enterprises may sell timber with FSC claims.
A certified supply chain ensures timber product traceability all the way from the forest to the final consumer. The certificate testifies that raw materials for certified wood products have originated in a forest managed in a sustainable way.
If a wood product, including timber, has been certified, it is possible to track its progress through all stages of the supply chain.
