MWV Consumer & Office Products announced it has received Chain of Custody certification to the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) program, the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification Schemes (PEFC), as well as SFI fiber sourcing certification. The certifications provide third-party validation of MWV’s sustainable fiber sourcing practices and help to assure our customers and consumers of the company’s responsible environmental stewardship.
Chain of custody is the process of tracking and recording the possession and transfer of wood fiber from the forest of origin, through manufacture, production and processing stages and, ultimately, to its end use.
“These certifications help customers identify those products that meet their environmental demands, and provide trusted third-party validation of the company’s sustainable business practices,” said Neil McLachlan, president, MWV Consumer & Office Products.
