TimberCheck has been running Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and PEFC groups since 1999 under the name of INDFOR.

“We will continue with the same pragmatic and affordable approach to certification delivering a service for a realistic fee using auditors who have relevant industrial experience,” said David Ogg, TimberCheck managing director.

In July Mr Ogg became a program manager for the Control Union Group in Holland and is now responsible for the development of its FSC and PEFC programmes around the world.

Control Union can now offer a complete package for FSC, PEFC and ISO standards as well as orgaic and agricultural standards.
