PEFC has always been concerned about forest issues. Now this time they introduce something new in forestry system. The ‘Chain of Custody Certification’ which is a tool to support one’s company in demonstrating legal and sustainable sourcing of forest products.
Chain of Custody provides a mechanism for tracking forest-based material throughout the entire value chain. It enables one’s company to deliver accurate and verifiable information on the content of material originating from PEFC-certified forests, recycled materials and other controlled sources.
The acquisition of Chain of Custody certification reinforces the sustainability commitments of businesses. It provides companies with a commercial advantage as it allows them to use the PEFC logo on products, making them preferred choice, especially for responsible consumers. Over 16,300 companies had already applied to get secured by PEFC CoC.
