Coed Cymru established the first Group Forest Management FSC certification scheme in Wales in 2001. We are audited each year by SGS Qualifor.
If you own or manage a woodland in Wales and would like to join the scheme please read below and contact your local Coed Cymru Woodland Officer (see Contacts Page).
To source Welsh FSC Timber see 'Timber Stores' page or contact us on (01686) 650777
Our scheme is open to woodlands already managed by or eligible for management by Coed Cymru.
There is no charge.
Your wood will be assessed against the UK Woodland Assurance Standard (UKWAS).
There is a minimum amount of additional paperwork.
Our scheme covers round timber and firewood up to the first point of sale.
For further timber processing/sales you will need a separate chain of custody certificate.
