Generate real and measurable environmental impacts
with FSC® Verified Impacts
A new FSC standard to credibly enhance the environmental benefits of sustainable forest management.
Forests generate value:
make it visible
Well-managed forests provide essential ecosystem services: carbon, biodiversity, soil and water protection and places for recreation and cultural practices.
With FSC® Verified Impacts, these benefits can be rigorously measured and certified, making a tangible contribution to your company’s or organisation’s environmental and social goals. There are also emerging commercial markets for these verified impacts.
An evolution of the previous FSC® Procedure for Ecosystem Services, now clearer and more robust.
Who is it for?
The procedure is designed for companies in the wood supply chain that use FSC®-certified wood with a clear connection to the forests of origin.
For example, a company that produces wood panels from an FSC®-certified forest it owns can use FSC® Verified Impacts to demonstrate how the forest project contributes to its climate goals.
