FSC Chain of Custody Certification: Cerdá Group promotes sustainable and responsible stationery

Sustainability has become a fundamental pillar for companies seeking to create a positive impact on the environment while meeting the expectations of increasingly environmentally conscious consumers. In this context, the responsible management of raw materials is especially important, particularly in sectors where paper and cardboard are essential components of products and packaging.

To ensure the responsible sourcing of these materials and strengthen transparency throughout the supply chain, Cerdá Group has obtained FSC® Chain of Custody (CoC) certification. This certification verifies the traceability of the forest-based materials used and reflects the company's commitment to more sustainable and responsible production, in line with internationally recognised forest management standards.

FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council®) certification is an internationally recognised system that promotes responsible forest management. Its purpose is to ensure that products made from paper, cardboard, and other forest-based materials originate from sustainably managed sources that meet strict environmental, social, and economic standards

Within this framework, Chain of Custody (CoC) certification enables FSC-certified materials to be traced throughout the entire supply chain, from the forest to the final product. This allows companies to demonstrate that the raw materials they use maintain their responsible origin throughout every stage of the production and distribution process.

Traceability is one of the core principles of FSC certification. This system makes it possible to verify the journey of forest-based raw materials and ensure that the paper and cardboard used come from controlled and responsibly managed sources.

In the stationery sector, where paper remains an essential material, this assurance provides added value for both manufacturers and consumers. In addition to promoting sustainable forest management, it helps protect biodiversity, supports local communities, and encourages responsible business practices.

FSC® Chain of Custody certification reinforces Cerdá Group's commitment to sustainability and the continuous improvement of its processes. Through this standard, the company promotes the use of certified materials in selected stationery products and packaging, ensuring the traceability and responsible sourcing of the forest-based raw materials used.

This initiative forms part of a broader sustainability strategy focused on reducing the environmental impact of its operations, promoting more responsible production practices, and meeting the expectations of a market that is increasingly committed to sustainability.

By incorporating FSC-certified materials, Cerdá Group actively contributes to the conservation of forest resources and the development of more transparent and sustainable supply chains.
