When the EU Regulation on Deforestation-free Products (EUDR) came into force in June 2023, FSC accelerated several existing projects to align our sustainable forestry standards with the EUDR requirements and develop the required technology solutions to ease compliance for companies.

While we are finalising our solutions to meet our own robust three-chamber governance requirements, you can already register to see the result.
