Chain of Custody (CoC)
Chain of Custody (CoC) certification is a one step backward assessment to assess whether the source of wood raw materials used by the timber industry is certified as sustainable forest.
In the CoC certification assessment, the assessor will assess the traceability of timber from the industry to the source of raw materials through a timber administration assessment, in order to obtain an unbroken chain that describes the origin of the wood from sustainably produced forests.
For consumers, chain of custody certification is useful to distinguish wood products from sustainable forests from those that are not.
For producers/industry, chain of custody certification can improve production efficiency and regularity of timber administration, and increase market confidence in the wood products produced.
The chain of custody certification logo on the product is also a guarantee of the origin of the wood and an appreciation for forest sustainability.
The implementation of the COC Certification System is described in the LEI Guidelines series 88 which includes various guidelines related to the system.
