SFI and FSC Certification in North America - A Summary Comparison

Third party forest certification has its skeptics.  Count us among them.  Not because we don't believe private timberland owners should get credit for the good work they do - providing our nation with wood fiber and a wealth of quite diverse wildlife habitat - but because certificaiton has had undesirable political undercurrents since its inception more than a decade ago.  Nevertheless, we are pleased to provide this very informative comparison of the two most common certification systems used in the United States: SFI and FCS.  Click below for the certification report.
