Printing is privileged to announce they have obtained
chain-of-custody certification from the Forest
Stewardship Council (FSC). Our company is the first in
the Hunter/Central Coast region to obtain Certification.
In fact only a handful of companies in NSW currently
hold Certification.
It is widely accepted that forest resources and
associated lands should be managed to meet the social,
economic, ecological, cultural and spiritual needs of
present and future generations. Furthermore, growing public
awareness of forest destruction and degradation has led
consumers to demand that there purchases of wood and paper
products will not contribute to this destruction but rather
might help secure forest resources for the future.
The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is an international,
non-profit organisation founded in 1993 to support
environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and
economically viable management of the world’s forests. These
FSC forests are responsibly managed according to fixed
standards. The goal is to improve forest conservation and
reduce deforestation. After (FSC) forests are harvested they
are replanted becoming a sustainable source for wood
production. Through the chain-of-custody review, the source
of a wood product is verified and tracked through the
various production processes to its final state. These
products are labeled with the FSC logo, ensuring the
consumer that the product they receive is credible and comes
from a well managed forest.
The (FSC) accreditation NCP Printing has obtained has
only been achieved after the company successfully underwent
a vigorous audit to ensure we complied with environmentally
sound practices. Our systems were found to be to a standard
that ensured we complied with all chain-of-custody
requirements. This chain-of-custody process requires
tracking the transfer of printing papers from their forest
of origin through the many stages of print production and
ultimately to the end user.
The sustainability of the world we live in is critical to
each and every living thing on our planet. We consider our (FSC)
accreditation a further step NCP Printing has taken to be
environmentally responsible. Our company considers corporate
social responsibility issues are becoming a integral
component of corporate brands. Dealing responsibly with your
companies footprint cannot only assist our environment but
also enhance your corporate brand.
