Sakkho's FSC Chain of Custody | Benefits for The Building Industry
Sakkho offers FSC Certified timber products and non-FSC certified products. There has been a growing global concern in the building sector with architects, property developers, interior designers and other professionals looking for "green" materials and supplies. Various institutions around the world are now setting environmentally friendly standards to be met when timber and timber products are used for building and construction projects.

The FSC is globally recognised by Governments and other organizations as one of the few certification schemes with standards accepted as valid by environmental rating systems set by most Green Building Councils around the world.


view CoC certificate
Green Building Councils are aiming at developing a sustainable property industry and drive the adoption of green building practices through market-based solutions; generally for timber products to receive points towards various credit systems and be accepted as environmentally friendly within a construction project, a full Chain of Custody (COC) must exist through the supply chain project. That is, all certified wood materials sourced by, and used on, the project must come from suppliers that have a valid Chain of Custody Certificate from a recognized certification scheme such as the FSC.

Our timber products are not reviewed or certified under any Green Building Council assessment methods. Credit requirements usually cover the performance of materials in aggregate, not the performance of individual products or brands.

Various credit and rating systems exist around the world such as the Australian Green Star® rating system, the U.S. LEED environmental rating system, the French HQE® system... for more information on green or environmental assessment systems, contact your country's Green Building Council; view list below:
