Forest Stewardship Council®
Pan Pac achieved Forest Stewardship Council®(FSC‑C017103) Certification in December 2001 and has maintained it since.
FSC® Certification is a system that provides a guarantee that forest products come from responsibly managed sources.
Customers buying products with an FSC® label are, in effect, supporting the growth of responsible forest management worldwide. FSC® certification is the mark of responsible forestry, which means that forests are well managed according to strict environmental, social and economic standards. Independent third parties assess Pan Pac’s compliance with good forestry practices required for FSC® Certification.
Pan Pac’s pulp and lumber mills hold FSC® Chain-of-Custody certification (FSC-C106229 and FSC-C006931) and this provides a guarantee that the sourcing of fibre and the manufacturing of FSC® products through to shipment is in accordance with FSC® criteria.
The company’s pulp and lumber are FSC® Mix Credit, with input fibre and logs sourced from its own managed FSC® certified forests and other well managed FSC® certified or controlled wood risk assessed forests in the surrounding region. All the logs and fibre processed are of New Zealand origin.
Certified and controlled sourcing means that the logs used in Pan Pac’s processes are:
- Not from GM trees
- Not from high value conservation areas
- From forests where traditional or civil rights are not violated
- Legally obtained
- Not from forests that have been converted to plantation.
