FSC labels
What is the FSC label

The FSC Mixed Sources label shows that a product is made from wood from FSC-certified well-managed forests, together with recycled material and/or wood from company controlled sources.

FSC controlled wood must be independently verified before it is mixed with FSC-certified material for the final product to carry the FSC Mixed Sources certification. The recycling symbol identifies the percentage of post-consumer recycled content in the product.
