FSC® PROCESS
1. Enquiry and quotation

In the quotation phase we check the availability of the wood species you are asking for. The FSC® claim will be specified in the quotation. Of course we will do our best to keep additional FSC® costs within reasonable limits and lead times short.

2. Order confirmation

The FSC® claim will be clearly specified on the order confirmation.

3. Purchasing

When purchasing, we strictly and continuously control our suppliers and their FSC® certification. From receiving the goods marked with their FSC® claim, we enter the FSC® material into our Chain of Custody process.

4. Storage & production

During storage, production and internal logistics in our factory, the Chain of Custody may never been broken. In this stage the process will be really pressed as no failures will be accepted.

5. Delivery & invoice

All shipping and invoice documents will, and must, clearly state the FSC® claim of the supplied goods. If not, it can never been ”sold” as FSC® certified materials.
