Controlled forest resources
In the last 20 years, much has been done to make poplar cultivation more sustainable from the environmental point of view. Clones that are more resistant to the primary diseases have been cultivated, and cultivation methods were implemented that guarantee sustainable management of the plantations through the reduced use of fertilisers and pesticides and the reduction of CO2 emissions through the introduction of good agricultural practices.
Sustainable management guarantee
FSC is a non-profit organisation founded in 1993 to promote responsible forest management worldwide. Its three fundamental pillars are: respect for the environment, social benefit, and economic sustainability.
FSC certification is a guarantee of sustainable forest management as well as a standard that allows the pulp or wood from a certified forest to be traced throughout the entire processing chain. The FSC logo lays bare the production chain of the products to which it applies its logo.
The principle of traceability
Berardi Imballaggi has created some FSC® certified product lines within its product range. The line of semi-finished products in MDF and the line of cardboard packaging are included under the FSC certification the company obtained following periodic inspections by an independent third-party certification organisation to verify the correct application of FSC principles to the supply chain and product manufacturing phases (Chain of Custody). The products that comply with the FSC Chain of Custody rules and principles are placed on the market with a specific product declaration and can bear the FSC label.
It is a voluntary certification that gives value to our sustainable path
The choice to be part of a circuit of virtuous processing companies that, without being required by law, decide to use raw materials from sustainably managed forest, making its products traceable, reinforces Berardi Imballaggi's sustainable culture. The choices made today in view of environmental, social, and economic sustainability are the starting point for a better future. For everyone.
