FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) runs a global forest certification system with two key components: Forest Management, Chain of Custody. This system allows consumers to identify, purchase and use wood, paper and other forest products produced from well-managed forests and/or recycled materials. It ha 3 different labeling on products:
FSC 100%: The FSC 100% label means that the wood within the product comes completely from FSC-certified forests.
FSC RECYCLED: The FSC Recycled label means all the wood or paper in the product comes from reclaimed (re-used) material.
FSC MIX: The FSC Mix label means the wood within the product is from FSC-certified material, recycled material, or controlled wood. While not fully FSC-certified, controlled wood cannot be: illegally harvested; harvested in violation of traditional and civil rights; harvested in forests where high conservation values (HCVs) are threatened; harvested in forests being converted to plantations or non-forest use; harvested in forests where genetically modified trees are planted.
