FSC is an independent, non-governmental, not-for-profit organization established to promote the responsible management of the world’s forests.

Established in 1993 as a response to concerns over global deforestation, FSC is widely regarded as one of the most important initiatives of the last decade to promote responsible forest management worldwide. The FSC certification system Brown completed provides an internationally recognized standard-setting, trademark assurance and accreditation services in responsible forestry.

The FSC label provides a credible link between responsible production and consumption of forest products, enabling consumers and businesses to make purchasing decisions that benefit people and the environment as well as providing ongoing business value.

Brown achieved FSC certification in 2008 and is proud to be a part of an organization represented in more than 50 countries around the world. For more information, please visit www.fsc.org
