SGS moratorium on new FSC forest management certificates
Following the results of recent
accreditation audits by Accreditation Services
International (ASI), SGS South Africa, an FSC accredited
certification body, has made a business
decision to adopt an open-ended moratorium on the
issuance of new FSC forest management certificates. SGS
indicated that it remains committed to FSC’s objectives
and that it will use this time to systematically review
the situation related to forest management
certification.
As of May 29th, 2008, SGS will not sign new contracts
for assessing forest management operations for the
purpose of FSC certification. However, SGS will maintain
its services to all existing certificate holders and
will continue to work with companies seeking
re-certification.
