Our Environmental Commitment

Ablebox is committed to looking after our environment and we understand that it is important to our customers too. We're proud to offer chain of custody to guarantee that our products are sourced using materials from well-managed FSC-certified forests, recycled materials, and other controlled sources.

The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is an international non-profit organization that sets standards for responsible forest management. When you choose FSC-certified products, you are supporting the growth of responsible forest management worldwide.

Our FSC Chain of Custody certification ensures complete traceability of forest-based materials throughout our supply chain, from the forest to the final packaging product. This provides our customers with the assurance that they are choosing environmentally responsible packaging solutions.

FSC Chain of Custody

Chain of Custody (CoC) is the path taken by raw materials and products from the forest through the supply chain to the end-consumer. It includes each stage of sourcing, processing, trading and distribution where progress to the next stage of the supply chain involves a change of product ownership.

Our FSC Chain of Custody certification ensures that FSC-certified material is identified and separated from non-certified material throughout our supply chain. This provides credible assurance to consumers that FSC-labeled products come from well-managed FSC-certified forests, recycled materials, and other controlled sources.

This certification enables us to purchase FSC-certified raw materials and sell FSC-labeled products, providing our customers with packaging solutions that support responsible forest management.
