MAPLE GROVE, MN - At the upcoming AWFS show, July 22-25th, 2015, Midwest Hardwood Corporation will be celebrating its 20 year anniversary of offering temperate North American hardwoods as Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Certified. This anniversary falls less than a year after the FSC celebrated its 20th anniversary last September. Midwest’s certification number, RA-COC-000008 illustrates the early commitment made to this highly successful program.

After 20 years in existence, FSC is the world’s strongest certification, in terms of global reach, robustness of certification criteria and number of businesses involved in the system. Over 180 million hectares are FSC certified. The organization works with 150,000 small holders around the world. The General Assembly is FSC’s top decision-making body, where the members propose, debate and vote on policy that guides the organization. As a member-led democracy, FSC is unique among forest certification systems.

Midwest Hardwood Corporation is proud to have represented FSC North American hardwoods for 20 years and looks forward to many more. Midwest can offer FSC hardwoods in Northern Red Oak, Northern Hard Maple, White Oak, Black Walnut, Hickory, Cherry, Yellow Poplar and most other North American species. Midwest holds a multi-site certificate covering most of the production facilities and also offers FSC Certified unfinished flooring from its flooring manufacturing operation, LaCrosse Flooring by Westby Hardwood Products. At Midwest Hardwood Corporation, "We Make Green Easy." Please come by our AWFS booth #4053 to discuss what FSC hardwoods can do for you.
