PEFC is the world’s leading forest certification system with over 200 million hectares of certified forests worldwide.
PEFC certification is a voluntary tool for forest owners who wish to demonstrate sustainable forest management and for companies that wish to support sustainable forest management while also documenting the traceability of the wood products they use in their production.
The PEFC system requires that the wood can be traced all the way through the supply chain, from certified forests through the processing stages to the consumer. Therefore, anyone processing or selling PEFC-certified wood must have a traceability certificate.
The Danish PEFC certification system for sustainable forest management is developed and maintained by PEFC Denmark.
