Why are we here?

This information platform is addressed primarily to “operators” (where wood is placed on the market from Romania) seeking proper implementation of a “Due Diligence System” (DDS), following the demand of FSC^® Controlled Wood Standard.

At the same time, this platform can be useful through its information to authorities, monitoring organizations, certification bodies, administrators and forest owners, protected area managers, NGOs or any interested entity interested to actively participate in the forest certification process or other voluntary control mechanisms of the supply chain.

Role of the platform

We aim to promote the best ways to effectively combat illegal logging and to properly implement the provisions of EU Timber Regulation no. 995/2010 (EUTR). We support the implementation of responsible forestry practices (appropriate to environmental conservation needs, economically viable and that generates social benefits), and in particular the “controlled wood” requirements established through the Forest Stewardship Council^® (FSC^®) certification system.
