Motivation

FSC certification is widely used for manufacturers and distributors of wood/forest related products (copy paper, cardboard, toilet paper, etc) to demonstrate corporate responsibility for use of forest resources. The license ID provides further information on organisations which are allowed to use the FSC trademarks in promoting or doing business with wood/forest related products. Note that some organisations may not need to be certified, but need a license in order to promote FSC certified products. Dhx1 (talk) 13:36, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
