Precisely What Does FSC Certified Wood Mean?
The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is an international, non-governmental charity, created in 1993 to encourage responsible management of all of the Earth’s forests. Different countries have branches of the organisation doing work in them.
The important benefit of the FSC is that forests are protected for future generations and people understand that when obtaining wood which is FSC certified, they are not contributing to deforestation and global warming.
Deforestation is a large concern for the earth. If forests aren’t properly controlled, we could end up losing an irreplaceable and crucial part of the world’s ecosystem. This not surprisingly would be a problem on a world level and one that we must avoid.
Illegal logging is a part of the problem. People desperate for cash chop down virgin forest and clear trees faster than they can be replaced. No reverence is given to regional wildlife or indigenous peoples that count on the forest for all of their needs. Unfortunately some of this wood will find its way into the UK where end users are sometimes unaware as to where the timber originates from.
People can have faith in the FSC labelling of timber. The certification relates to forest management and chain of custody. A well managed forest will be managed with concern for wildlife, people and the environment and trees that have been cut down will be replaced naturally or replanted. Areas of the forest will be protected from logging to protect the rare plants and animals that happen to be part of it and to protect sacred sites of indigenous people. Workers will be acquired locally, trained properly and paid fairly.
The chain of custody tracks the movement of the timber from forest to end supplier. Every link along the way is monitored and certified to be certain that everyone is compliant with the FSC’s priciples.
Consumers will see the FSC logo (a tree with a tick) on anything from wooden furniture, cedar cladding and oak beams to charcoal and venison.
If you are shopping for wood or wooden producs, ensure they contain the FSC logo and this means that you’ll be sure to have an environmentally sound product.
