With a "forest" certification from Bureau Veritas Certification, timber production units and manufacturers benefit by reassuring consumers, professional buyers and retailers whilst?building customer loyalty and an ultimate market share.? At the same time, they incorporate sustainable business practices into their daily operations, assuring a brighter future for the industry.
This programme is designed to support forestry management and
sustainable development while enhancing wood products revenue collection. Over-logging and illegal logging can rapidly strip a country of its natural resources which are a source of government revenue and is also environmentally damaging. Working in conjunction with the appropriate Government Authorities, Bureau Veritas Group provides that essential support to monitor the actual volume exported and discourages illegal activities.
Today, preserving resources and the environment are top concerns for businesses and consumers. In the forestry industry, the effects reverberate from trees to the end-customer. How can a timber production unit manage its business while sustaining the land? How can a shopper looking to purchase a table confirm that the wood used was harvested ethically and from a sustainable forest ?
Bureau Veritas provides third party verification to the forestry and wood products industries. But increasingly, under pressure from consumers and from non governmental organizations, more is needed than just verification. Consumers are starting to demand proof of origin or traceability. People want to know that the products they buy come from forests which are managed responsibly. The answer is certification.
