Why FSC makes a difference

Equal assessments of forest management certification schemes show the FSC system as the strongest and most credible, and the FSC standards to be the highest social and environmental requirements on the market.

Independent research has confirmed FSC's positive impact on the ground in regard to social, socio-economic and environmental considerations. There is not yet another forest certification model that ensures the same level of integrity and impact for responsible forest management.
