Logo and Labeling
Introduction
The label provides information relating to the origin of forest based product in sustainable managed forest and other non controversial sources. Purchasers and potential purchasers can use this information in choosing the product based on environmental, as well as other considerations. The overall goal of the logo / label usage is, through communication of accurate and verifiable information that is not misleading, to encourage demand for and supply of those products originating from legally harvested sources and thereby stimulating the potential for market-driven continuous improvement of the world’s forest resource.
