Sustainable Forestry Initiative
In the coming months King Forest Industries is working on becoming SFI® (Sustainable Forestry Initiative) fiber sourcing certified.
SFI® is a non-profit charitable organization, and is solely responsible for maintaining, overseeing and improving the Sustainable Forestry Initiative program which is internationally recognized and among the largest in the world. It is one of the fastest growing forest certification programs with over 160 million acres of SFI®-certified forest across North America. The SFI® Standard also includes unique fiber sourcing requirements that promote responsible forest management on all suppliers' lands and a chain-of-custody certification, which can communicate to buyers how much certified fiber is in a specific product. The SFI® forest standard has very strict requirements for endorsement.
King Forest values the role the SFI® program will play in protecting the long term health and sustainability of our forest and educating the land owners regarding the benefits of sustainable forestry. SFI® certification is good for our company, the community and the industry. We also will make available the information needed to educate our log suppliers, lumber customers and land owners in the SFI®program and other programs like it.
