Are there any help tools or guidance on how to prepare for Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification?
Yes. The Rainforest Alliance SmartWood program provides a number of tools that will help your staff identify the elements that may need to be addressed in complying with various requirements for FSC Chain-of-Custody (CoC) and Controlled Wood (CW). You must carefully review the standards and definitions to understand the tools. By only using the tools it is not a guarantee that your systems, records, tracking and handling procedures will be found in conformance with the standard. The tools are provided for illustration purposes. They are not required for use as a template. Additional tools are available to SmartWood clients.
