Together we are…managing risk country by countryWe’ve been working with WWF since 2015 to explore how forest certification can be used to meet EU Timber Regulation (EUTR) requirements. We assessed the risk levels for different countries and defined stringent requirements for those countries deemed to be high risk. This work shows us that a robust Due Diligence Management System cannot be based on legal compliance alone – it must also address wider risks.
To support minimum legal compliance, country-risk classification and applicable assurance levels need to be supplemented by in-depth assessments, including external information sources, to ensure good decision-making in every sourcing country.

% of PEFC-certified forest % of FSC-certified forest* In South Africa, wood is sourced only from forest plantations, 80% of which are certified (DAFF, 2018)Note: A sum of FSC% and PEFC% can be higher than 100%, because some forests are dually certified to both FSC and PEFC. Calculated based on FAO, FSC, PEFC (June 2018)
Certification provides important assurance
