목재는 아름답고, 다루기 쉽고, 재생 가능한 자원인 동시, 탄소 효율성을 지닌, 우수한 성능의 자재입이니다. 건축 및 가구의 소재로 사용되는 FSC 인증 목재는 지속 가능한 목재 산업을 위해 매우 중요합니다. FSC 인증은 친환경 산림 관리를 통해 목재가 수급되도록 할 뿐 아니라 녹색 건축 산업에 참여하는 회사들이 변화하는 목재 규정을 준수하는데 도움을 주고, 친환경을 중시하는 소비자를 요구를 충족시키는 데 도움이 됩니다.

펄프는 포장, 종이, 위생 제품, 휴지, 판지, 인쇄 용지에 이르기까지 다양한 제품의 원료입니다. 최근 FSC / GlobeScan 글로벌 소비자 조사에 따르면 소비자들은 기업이 환경 보호에 보다 적극적으로 참여하고 실천해 줄것을 기대하고, 구매에 앞서 기업이나 제품에 대해 보다 많은 정보를 확인합니다. 포장 및 제지 분야는 책임 있는 소싱을 통해 지속 가능한 산림을 지원함과 동시 이에 대한 약속을 홍보하여 브랜드 평판을 높일 수 있습니다.

산림은 가구, 건축 자재, 펄프 및 종이 등의 전형적인 산림 제품 외에도 훨씬 더 많은 자원을 제공합니다. 기술의 발전으로 지속 가능하면서도 혁신적인 임산물에 대한 잠재력이 확대되고 있으며, FSC 인증은 이러한 제품이 공급되는 산림이 책임 있게 관리 된다는 보증을 추가합니다.

Due to their direct line of communication with consumers, retailers can influence the decisions made by consumers, and in this way, drive sustainability trends forward. A Globescan survey found that 50% of the surveyed consumers worldwide recognise the FSC label and they trust that FSC is effective in protecting forests. As consumers are increasingly looking for information on the sustainability of the products they buy, the role of retailers in conveying such messages is becoming even more relevant. The FSC label is therefore a powerful tool that can help retailers to communicate their commitment to sustainable forest management.
FSC G.D
전 세계 수 천개의 제품에서 발견할 수 있는 FSC 로고를 포함한 트레이드 마크는 지구를 아끼려는 전 세계 소비자들이 가장 신뢰하는 마크 입니다.

With more than 75,000 organizations holding FSC chain of custody certification, FSC is the leading sustainable forest management solution, providing the highest global assurance of supply chain integrity from forest to end user. FSC is not restricted to products on a store shelf, however. Your business has the opportunity to use the FSC trademarks to promote your projects! By complying with the FSC Standard for Project Certification, the projects you manage can be FSC-certified, allowing you to manage several projects in a continual basis or a one-time project certification, whichever is more convenient for you.

FSC Denmark
Small forest owners and communities are at the heart of FSC. We have launched a number of different initiatives over the last 25 years, and we have achieved a lot. The wealth of knowledge and resources we have built up was harnessed to inform our latest project, launched to look into new and innovative solutions. It is called the New Approaches for Smallholders and Communities Certification project.

Natural Rubber
Sourcing sustainable natural rubber
Rubber is used in many items of our daily lives, including shoes, tyres, footballs, condoms and even medical products, such as catheters and gloves. When it is not managed responsibly, it can have grave negative impacts on the environment, communities and workers' livelihoods.
