The Importance of FSC Certification in Packaging Industry

The Importance of FSC Certification in Packaging Industry

As the world’s most trusted sustainable forest management solution, Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) promotes environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable management of the forests worldwide. FSC certification confirms that forests are managed in a way to preserve their biodiversity and benefit the lives of locals while ensuring economic sustainability.

REQUIREMENTS FOR FSC CERTIFICATION

FSC certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits. Certification is an optional and voluntary process.

To obtain FSC certification, an organization should meet the principles and numerous criteria that apply to FSC-certified forests around the world. These principles include:

  1. Compliance with laws
  2. Workers’ rights and employment conditions
  3. Indigenous Peoples’ rights
  4. Community relations
  5. Benefits from the forest
  6. Environmental values and impact
  7. Management planning
  8. Monitoring and assessment
  9. High conservation values
  10. Implementation of management activities

 

Why should we choose FSC-certified products? 

Consumers are increasingly demanding eco-friendly and responsible products. When it comes to forest-based products, FSC certification offers a sustainable choice that consumers can trust to deliver better outcomes for forests, people and markets – today and for future generations.

More and more global and local brands are working toward a sustainable future by promoting sustainability, adopting more eco-friendly approaches and making choices for the good of the planet. Paper products made from traceable and sustainable resources are an essential part of sustainability when it comes to selecting product packaging.

Protecting nature is a serious responsibility, and businesses can take various actions to reduce their footprint. Using FSC-certified packaging is one way of contributing to sustainability.
