Ce reprezinta FSC?
Certificarea Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) va va ajuta sa indepliniti cerintele pietei, sa va imbunatatiti reputatia si sa sprijiniti padurile lumii. Certificarea FSC asigura ca originea produselor din lemn este responsabila.
Infiintat in 1993 ca o organizatie neguvernamentala globala bazata pe membri, FSC promoveaza administrarea responsabila a padurilor prin eco-etichete. Astazi, certificarea FSC este considerata pe scara larga drept standardul de referinta pentru gestionarea responsabila a padurilor.
Pentru comertul intre organizatiile care sustin si vand produse certificate, marcate FSC, certificarea este obligatorie. Logo-ul si etichetele FSC creeaza o legatura solida intre padurile bine gestionate si consumatorii finali, oferind avantaje pe piata pentru companii si pentru operatiunile forestiere certificate.
Preferred by Nature este un organism de certificare acreditat FSC (FSC™ A000535) pentru Management Forestier (Forest Management), Lantul de Custodie (Chain of Custody), Lemn Controlat (Controlled Wood), Certificarea Proiectelor (Project Certification) si Proceduri pentru Servicii Ecosistemice (Ecosystem Procedures).

Patru motive pentru care FSC este unic
- Sprijin din partea ONG-urilor: FSC este singurul sistem international de certificare forestiera sustinut de ONG-uri mari, precum WWF, consolidandu-si astfel „credibilitatea publica” si impactul real la nivel global.
- Implicarea factorilor interesati: FSC este organizat in trei camere – sociala, economica si de mediu – asigurand o influenta echitabila la toate nivelurile de luare a deciziilor.
- Aliniere globala: Certificarea FSC respecta standardele si cerintele globale. Padurile certificate se intind pe aproximativ 80 de tari din intreaga lume.
- Transparenta: FSC este o organizatie internationala bazata pe membri, ghidata de principii precum aparteneta, democratia, echitatea si transparenta.

Certificarea FSC Controlled Wood
FSC Controlled Wood (Lemn Controlat), provenit din surse acceptabile, poate fi amestecat cu material certificat FSC in produse, utilizand eticheta FSC Mix, reducand riscul de produse forestiere provenite din surse inacceptabile, inclusiv lemn exploatat ilegal, cu incalcari ale drepturilor omului, provenit din conversia padurilor in terenuri neforestiere si altele. Exista doua tipuri de certificare a lemnului controlat: Forest Certification (Certificarea padurilor) si Chain of Custody Certification (Certificarea Lantului de Custodie).
