FSC Disassociates from the Danzer Group
June 6, 2013
On May 21, 2013 FSC International announced that the board of directors had decided to disassociate from the Danzer Group due to reputational risks for FSC linked to stakeholder disputes in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
As a voluntary certification system, disassociation is the most significant step FSC can take with respect to a certificate holder.
As a result of the disassociation, Danzer will lose all FSC certificates and will no longer be allowed to use FSC trademarks.
