Navigating the New FSC Chain of Custody Standard: General Updates

American Green Consulting is introducing a new webinar series to help keep you up to date on the latest FSC® standards.

American Green Consulting helps you stay on top of the latest trends in certification.

June’s topic: Navigating the New FSC Chain of Custody Standard: General Updates. The FSC Chain of Custody (CoC) certification is the most common FSC certification. The purpose of the CoC certification is to be able to track each product back to the forest from which it originated, ensuring that it came from a responsibly managed forest. The “chain of custody” refers to the path that a wood product takes from the forest through the supply chain to the end consumer. This certification also verifies that these wood products are not unknowingly mixed with those from uncertified forests at any point.

FSC CoC certification allows your company to use the FSC logo and show your customers that you support sustainable forestry.

During this 15-20 minute webinar, you will have the opportunity to ask AGC management questions and learn about:
New Updates to the FSC CoC Standards
Key Issues During Audits
Documentation Tips
