June 15 , 2021


FSC forest certification, also called timber certification, is a tool that uses market mechanisms to promote sustainable forest management and achieve ecological, social and economic goals. FSC forest certification includes forest management certification (Forest Management, FM) and chain of custody certification (Chain of Custody, COC). Forest management certification, also known as sustainable forest management certification or FSC forest certification for short, is aimed at forest management units. An independent third-party FSC forest certification agency uses forest management standards established by an independent third-party FSC forest certification agency in accordance with recognized principles and standards The process of reviewing the performance of forest management to prove that it meets the requirements of sustainable management. The production and marketing chain of custody certification is to appraise the entire chain of wood processing enterprises, including the entire chain from log transportation, processing to circulation, to ensure that the final product originates from a certified, well-managed forest. After passing the certification, the company has the right to mark the name and trademark of the certification system on its products, that is, the label for forest product certification.

It is generally believed that the root causes of forest problems are policy errors, market failures and imperfect institutions. The international community, governments and non-governmental environmental protection organizations have expressed great concern about this and have taken a series of actions: (1) National policy reform. Some countries have formulated and implemented basic policies for the transition to sustainable forest management, set out to solve problems in forestry, and prioritized the development of forestry and environmental protection.  (2) International intergovernmental process. Encourage and promote the sustainable development of forestry at the national level through international intergovernmental processes. But the effect is not obvious.
