Why should my company get Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Chain-of-Custody (CoC) certified?
In order for your customers to make an FSC product and/or make an FSC claim about the FSC products you produce and sell to them, you must be FSC CoC certified. Moreover, certification gives you the advantage of being identified as an environmentally and socially responsible company. By guaranteeing the forest products you sell were responsibly harvested, certification will provide your customers with a choice of purchasing products that contribute to global conservation, community well-being and economic stability. Certification will help to project a positive business image, capture a distinct market advantage, increase access to markets, and increase your sales efforts through web listings.
