SUSTAINABLE

Proud of our certificates

FSC®-certified wood*

Wood with the FSC label is guaranteed to come from responsibly managed forests. Every link in the trade chain, from forest manager to wholesaler, must be certified for this.

PEFC certified wood**

Forest managers can demonstrate their sustainable management with PEFC certification, allowing wood to be harvested from certified forests. Chain of Custody-certified companies can further process the wood and add the PEFC label to products such as paper, hardwood and building materials.

TLV Legality Certificate

Timber Legality Verification (TLV) is a certification system aimed at demonstrating the legal origin of wood products. TLV was developed to provide companies and end users with assurance that timber complies with applicable laws and regulations in the country of origin. This makes TLV an important tool in the fight against illegal logging and promotes transparency within the timber supply chain.

Calculate in 2 steps how much CO2 is sequestered in your wood products

Centrum Hout has set up a woodCO2 storage calculation module to calculate how muchCO2 is stored in your wood products. These products may consist of a single wood species, but may also be composed of multiple wood species or products. Also taken into account are wood (fibers) in different types of board material.
