Washington State University Earns FSC Certification

To receive its certification, the in-plant had to detail, in a lengthy report, its purchasing, production and finished product handling practices, as well as its record-keeping methods, training initiatives and more. An auditor visited and assessed the in-plant’s efforts.

The FSC is a nonprofit organization that encourages responsible management of the world’s forests and the products derived from those forests. The chain-of-custody certification provides assurance to consumers that the products they buy originated in forests that meet the FSC’s principles and criteria.
