"Certification of sustainability is of strategic importance to my business and influences who we choose to be our suppliers.

I need to be assured that I can have continual supply of timber from sustainable forests, more customers want to know where and how the raw material is logged and furthermore it makes plain sense to have sustainable forests where what is re-planted is equal to or more than what has been harvested."

Graeme Labuschweski (Director - Foreman Pty Ltd)

At Westside Timbers, we acknowledge how important it is for customers to know that our products are responsibly sourced without causing harm to environments and local communities.

FSC Chain of Custody Certification allows companies to use the FSC label, giving consumers assurance about the origin of the products they buy. If you're a business hoping to enter markets that are particularly environmentally and socially aware, Chain of Custody Certification is an essential credential. Achieving certification is also a great way to demonstrate compliance with public and private sector procurement policies - Green Building Council and Living Building Challenge - that specify environmentally responsible materials.
