Many wood products companies have obtained wood chain of custody certification over the years. Reasons for doing so range from qualifying for LEED wood credits and customer demand to verifying that their wood supply originates from well managed forests to downstream customers.
Has your company embraced Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) or Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) chain of custody programs? Did it once do so, but opted out of this type of program? Or are you, perhaps, actively pursuing or at least considering going for COC?
