In today’s environmentally conscious world, consumers play a significant role in shaping industries through their purchasing decisions. A simple foodservice packaging can lead to a great positive impact on the environment. One of the best ways to be sustainable is to choose products with Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) certification. This label represents a commitment to practices that benefit the planet, local communities, and future generations.

 

What is SFI Certification?

Ten independent accredited third parties, such as KPMG, PwC, and SGS, issue sustainable forestry initiative certification. They certify companies that use the SFI forest, and companies that dedicated to improved forest in long term. This means, companies must be qualified for SFI standards. And the standards are all about promoting sustainable forest management.

SFI quantified this goal into 13 principles, 17 objectives, 41 performance measures, and 114 indicators. Mainly focusing on maintaining and protecting the health of ecosystems during the process of tree harvesting.

 

Therefore, SFI certified products are using the materials that managed through rigorous ecological and social standards within United States. These materials harvested from forest resources that contributed to the overall health of the environment. It guide both organizations and individuals in achieving responsible practices that protect the planet and ensures social equity.
