FPAC Commitments
Certification (2002)• All FPAC members with woodlands operations in Canada are committed to achieve
third-party sustainable forest management certification on those woodlands by December 31, 2006.
Traceability (2006)• FPAC members commit to tracing their fibre supplies back to the forest area of
origin, by the end of 2008, to assure customers that the wood fibre they are using comes from legal sources.”
Illegal Logging (2006)• …”Purchasing and using wood coming only from legal sources, and firmly
condemning corruption and criminal activities related to illegal logging.
New Allocation (2006)• Planning for conservation of ecological and cultural values prior to new forest
tenures in unallocated part of Canada’s boreal forest
