ARQADIA LAUNCHES FSC CERTIFIED MOUNTBOARD |
| |
Market leader Arqadia is proud to announce that many of
its best selling mountboards are now FSC Chain of Custody certified.
The FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) is an independent, non-profit,
non-governmental organization which promotes sustainably managed forests through
independent third party certification. The schemes provide an assurance
mechanism to purchasers of wood and paper products that they are promoting the
sustainable management of forests. Products carrying the FSC label are
independently certified to assure consumers that they come from forests that are
managed to meet the social, economic and ecological needs of present and future
generations.
Chain of Custody certification is the unbroken path which products take from the
forest to the consumer, including all stages of manufacturing, transportation
and distribution.
Chain of Custody certification provides evidence that the certified product
originates from certified, well managed forests, and verifies that these
products are not mixed with products from uncertified forests at any point in
the supply chain.
Managing director, Mike Brown said: “Demand for chain of custody certification
has grown dramatically in the past few years. Sustainability is a vital issue in
all industries and the ability to prove that products have been derived from a
well-managed source is now an increasingly key factor in the specification of
products such as mountboard.
“Arqadia is known for its innovation and commitment to continually raising the
bar both as a company and across the framing industry as a whole. Our new range
of FSC certified mountboards will provide customers with the added reassurance
and peace of mind about the environmental credentials of the products they are
using.”
The FSC certified mountboards are available in a variety of colours from neutral
creams and whites to more striking bold shades. New products are being added
regularly and customers can view the full range of FSC products by using the
search facility on the Arqadia website.
