Forest Week takes place 21-27 September. But what is FSC®and how can the trusted tree logo boost your brand’s eco-credentials?
The Forest Stewardship Council® helps take care of forests and the people and wildlife who call them home.
The FSC® system allows businesses and consumers to identify, purchase and use wood, paper and other forest products made with materials from well-managed forests and/or recycled sources.
The respected “tick tree” logo is used to indicate that products are certified under the FSC® system. When you see the logo on a label, you can buy forest products with confidence that you are helping to ensure our forests are alive for generations to come.
So how can choosing certified materials help your brand’s eco-credentials?
A lot of FSC® certified materials now have a very high percentage of recycled materials and can also be easily recycled, which can really help your brand to achieve your sustainability targets.
Plus, subject to a short approval process, you can add the respected “tick tree” logo to your design, which is a great way of communicating your brand’s eco-credentials to your customers.
At POSITIVE+ we stock a vast range of FSC® materials and we are FSC® Chain of Custody Certified. This ensures that materials have been checked at every stage of processing, so you can be confident that all of our FSC® labelled products are genuinely certified.
And if you would like to add the coveted “tick tree” logo to your design, we can handle the approval process for you.
If you would like to use FSC® certified materials in your next project, call Tony Dennington, Chief Commercial & Sustainability Officer today on 020 8544 5500 or email tony@wearepositive.com.
