What Is FSC Certified Packaging?

Time to read 3 min

FSC® Certified Packaging is a product certification system that recognizes packaging made from wood or paper products sourced from responsibly managed forests. It provides assurance to consumers and businesses that their packaging has been produced in an environmentally responsible way, with the highest standards of social responsibility and environmental stewardship.


This certification helps companies meet their sustainability goals while ensuring they are using materials that come from renewable sources.


With FSC® Certified Packaging, businesses can demonstrate their commitment to sustainability while providing customers with peace of mind about where their products have come from.

FSC Certified Chain Of Custody

Each step in the process is tracked and audited to ensure material is sourced from responsibly managed forests or wood material. When new material is added to the mix, it is tracked.


The FSC® Chain of Custody ensures that from its source in the forest, all the way through processing and manufacturing, and finally reaching your home or office, it’s certified as coming from a sustainable source.


This helps companies identify and address any issues with their supply chains so they can continue to use only FSC® Certified materials in their products and packaging.

FSC Labels

The FSC® Label is recognized worldwide as a symbol of responsible forest management. It lets customers know that the product they are buying has been produced with FSC® Certified materials and can be traced back to its source in the forest.


FSC 100%


All materials used come from responsibly managed, FSC®-certified forests. Products with the FSC® 100% label contribute most directly to our mission to ensure thriving forests for all, forever.


FSC Recycled


The product is made from 100 per cent recycled materials. Using recycled material makes the most of precious forest resources and reduces the pressure to harvest more trees.


FSC MIX


The product is made with a mixture of materials from FSC®-certified forests, recycled materials, and/or FSC® controlled wood. While controlled wood doesn’t come from FSC®-certified forests, it mitigates the risk of the material originating from unacceptable sources.
