Just as we depend on forests, forests depend on us. At the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) we unite citizens, businesses, governments, and NGOs under a common goal: protecting healthy, resilient forests for all, forever.

Forests regulate our climate, clean the air we breathe, and filter the water we drink. They also provide habitat for more than two-thirds of terrestrial wildlife and plants.

Forests play a vital role in our environment, communities, and economy. Responsible forest management balances each of these interests to achieve outcomes that benefit us all.

FSC forest management certification verifies forests are managed to be environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable.

The FSC label is the world’s most trusted mark for sustainable forestry. Learn more about this important distinction today.

We offer sustainable sourcing solutions that support responsible forestry. No matter the size or type of your business, FSC has a certification or licencing solution that’s right for you.

Simply put, blockchain is a recordkeeping digital technology that registers transactions into a digital ledger that cannot be changed.

At FSC, we use both satellite imagery and geographic information system (GIS) maps to collect data that provides proof of organizations’ conservation practices.
