Forest Stewardship Council (FSC®)
The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC®) is a world wide, non-profit, non-governmental organisation promoting the responsible growing, harvesting and on-going replanting of timber.
The FSC® label identifies responsibly produced timber and wood products from well-managed forests, where harvested trees are replaced or allowed to regenerate naturally. It is endorsed by the major environmental charities including WWF, Greenpeace and the Woodland Trust.
Telling your customers that you’re buying FSC® certified timber from Selco Builders Warehouse can open up new business to you. Sustainability is increasingly valued in the private sector and sustainable procurement is now being incorporated in government policies.
For more information see the FSC® website http://www.fsc-uk.org.
Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification schemes (PEFC)
PEFC is an independent, non-profit, non-governmental organisation which promotes sustainably managed forests.
Founded in 1999, it is the world’s largest forest certification system, contributing to the environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable management of forests for present and future generations.
PEFC provides an assurance mechanism to purchasers of wood and paper products that they are promoting the sustainable management of forests.
