Certified wood products are verified by a third party as originating from well-managed forests. GreenSpec recognizes the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) standards as currently the most rigorous and also the only certification system with established chain-of-custody certification to ensure that products used were derived from certified forests. The availability of domestic hardwood from third-party FSC-certified forests makes flooring a great application for certified wood. Products listed here are made of certified wood. However some companies listed here sell both certified and noncertified wood products, or products that have been certified according to different, less stringent environmental standards. To make certain that you get environmentally responsible wood products, be sure to specify your interest in FSC-certified wood.(See also Wood Products Certification and Information.)
