FCS

The Forest Stewardship Council [FSC) is an international, non-govern- mental organization dedicated to promoting responsible management of the world's forests. Since its foundation in 1994, FSC has grown to become the world's most respected and widespread forest certification system. FSC's pioneering certification system, which now covers more than 200 million hectares of forest, enables businesses and consumers to choose wood, paper and other forest products made with materials that support responsible forestry. FSC forest management certification confirms that the forest is being man- aged in a way that preserves biological diversity and benefits the lives of local people and workers, while ensuring it sustains economic viability. FSC-certified forests are managed to strict environmental, social and eco- nomic standards. There are ten principles that any forest operation must adhere to before it can receive FSC forest management certification. These principles cover a broad range of issues, from maintaining high conserva- tion values to community relations and workers' rights, as well as monitor- ing the environmental and social impacts of the forest management. We, Adzone Printers have been granted the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Chain-of-Custody (CoC) certification (FSC-C199008). We can offer customers FSC certified products that meet strict tracking requirements for ensuring that products sold as FSC-certified comes from responsible sources such as well-managed forests or from recycled content.
