Forest certification (PEFC, FSC)

Forest certification, like PEFC and FSC, are programs that ensure forests are managed sustainably. They set standards to protect ecosystems, wildlife, and the rights of local communities while allowing responsible harvesting of timber. Certification confirms that forest products, such as wood and paper, come from well-managed sources, supporting environmental health and social responsibility. These labels help consumers make informed choices, promoting conservation and ethical forestry practices worldwide.
