Oak Creek Wood Products has announced its achievement of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Chain of Custody certification. This milestone underlines the company's commitment to responsible forestry and environmental sustainability.

The FSC, a non-profit organization, aims to protect global forests while addressing issues such as deforestation, climate change, and biodiversity loss. The Chain of Custody certification guarantees that materials used by Oak Creek Wood Products are responsibly sourced and tracked throughout their supply chain. Globally, over 150 million hectares of forest are certified to meet FSC standards, which involve strict environmental, social, and economic practices to ensure sustainable forest management and human rights protection.

"Achieving FSC Chain of Custody certification is a proud moment for us at Oak Creek Wood Products," stated Rafael Guerrero, President and Owner. "FSC is the gold standard for sustainable forest management, and this certification ensures that we are sourcing wood products from responsibly managed forests. It is more than just a credential—it’s a tangible step toward creating a healthier, more sustainable world for future generations to come."

By adhering to FSC standards, Oak Creek Wood Products continues its commitment to responsible resource use and supports long-term environmental and social well-being.
