Chain of Custody Certificates

The North West Timber Treatments Group is committed to sourcing our timber and products from ethical and environmentally sustainable suppliers.­ 

Both trade certificates mean that the products you purchase can be traced from the point of purchase right through to the forest that the tree was cut from, both FSC® and PEFC have strict regulations that govern forests to ensure that:

• Biodiversity is maintained.
• There is no excessive deforestation.
• Trees exported from forests are replaced by replanted trees.
• Stakeholders, local communities are not adversely affected from deforestation.
• Workers rights are protected throughout the supply chain.

PLEASE STATE AT THE TIME OF ENQUIRY AND ORDER THAT YOU REQUIRE AUDITED FSC® AND PEFC MATERIALS TO ALLOW FOR PRICING AND OUR CHAIN OF CUSTODY AUDITING PROCESS.

What Timber do you sell that is FSC or PEFC?

• We can provide any timber size or product as Chain of Custody Certified Products providing it is not a hardwood.
• Most External Timbers, (ungraded) can be supplied as FSC Mix 70%
• Most Internal Timbers, (Joinery grade) can be supplied as 70% PEFC Certified.
• For particle board, fibreboard, plywood or graded timber it varies from our suppliers so you would need to enquire.
