FSC Certification: Is It Worth It?
Across the country at Messiah College, in Grantham, Pa., the view is a bit different.
“The issue of the environment is important,” says Dwayne Magee, director of the College Press. “But having the certification in our shop isn’t a huge issue.”
Over the past year, a handful of in-plants—mostly in higher-ed—have earned FSC chain-of-custody certification. By making the extra effort to promote sustainability, they are setting a great example and improving the image of their in-plants and their parent organizations.
