Established in 1999, the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) ensures forests are responsibly managed with environmental, social, and economic balance. PEFC certification signifies rigorous standards, promoting biodiversity, ecosystem protection, and community benefits.

Timber & Paper product organisations can obtain PEFC Chain of Custody certification, ensuring products come from sustainably managed forests.

To obtain PEFC certification, organizations undergo evaluation by accredited bodies and must comply with PEFC standards, establish a robust tracking system, and commit to continuous improvement and training. PEFC certification shows environmental and social responsibility and helps mitigate EUDR risks.

ISO 9001 Certification is awarded to organisations that meet the standards set by the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) for quality management systems. ISO 9001 outlines criteria for ensuring that organisations consistently provide products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements while enhancing customer satisfaction.

To obtain ISO 9001 Certification, an organisation must undergo an assessment by an accredited Certification Body. They must demonstrate a quality management system that adheres to ISO 9001 standards. This involves establishing processes and procedures to monitor and improve quality, ensuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and fostering a culture of continual improvement.

Organisations seeking ISO 9001 Certification must document their quality management system, undergo annual audits, and address any non-conformities identified during the assessment process.

Obtaining ISO 9001 Certification requires investment in resources, training, and a commitment to quality excellence.
