Forest Stewardship Council

The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is an international organization that promotes responsible forest management. It sets standards for managing forests in a way that balances environmental protection, social responsibility, and economic viability. The FSC certifies forests and forest products, ensuring that they come from responsibly managed sources. This means that the harvesting of timber and non-timber products supports biodiversity, respects the rights of local communities, and helps combat climate change. When you see the FSC label on a product, it signifies that it has been sourced sustainably, contributing to healthier forests and ecosystems.
