PEFC Certification
PEFC certified wood is first and foremost respect for the forest!
Sustainable forest management involves respecting and building upon standards based on internationally recognized environmental, social and economic requirements.
PEFC-certified wood guarantees the sustainable use of forests and the monitoring of wood flows from forests to the sawmill. In addition, PEFC wood promotes the growth of young trees and increases the vigor of others through good management criteria that are implemented.
PEFC in 3 words:
Credibility: recognized by 37 nations, internationally recognized accreditation and certification procedures, membership of more than 25 independent certification systems
Reliability: regular inspection by an independent certifier from the standing trees to the finished products to guarantee consumers a perfect follow-up of the wood products
Proximity: accessibility for all forest owners and businesses irrespective of their size, adaptation and integration of ecological environments, cultural traditions of men, ownership structure and management objectives.
The sawmill in Orgères produces a PEFC certified wood!
For us, the implementation of this quality approach is important in order to guarantee the sustainable development of forests. This allows our customers to know the origin of the wood they use.
We select the finest PEFC certified wood from the region and then we follow their evolution until their transformation.
Each year, we are audited to verify that we comply with the specifications that are imposed on us. We cooperate with actors who work with our PEFC certified timber (owners, lumberjacks, longshoremen, transporters) who are also subject to the strict rules set out in the PEFC specifications.
Thanks to this audit, we can use the PEFC mark and sell PEFC-certified wood.
Buying PEFC certified wood ensures the prosperity of the forest.
