Independent timber harvesting and marketing company Euroforest Ltd has achieved the international environmental standard ISO 14001.
The award, which followed final assessment by BM TRADA Certification in July, means both the harvesting and marketing of the company’s annual programme of more than one million cubic metres of timber, as well as sites managed on behalf of Nexfor and other customers, will be managed to an internationally recognised environmental standard.

Tony Willis, managing director, said: “Woodland owners using Euroforest can now not only be confident that we can guarantee traceability of every one of the 40,000 or so loads of timber which we handle every year through our chain of custody registration, but also that every load has been harvested in an environmentally friendly manner.”
