FSC-certified wood: dimensional lumber & sheet

Green Depot carries FSC- (Forest Stewardship Council) certified wood in almost all standard grades of dimensional lumber and sheet products, and in many hardwoods too.  FSC wood meets rigorous standards aimed at minimizing the ecological and social impacts of logging worldwide. The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is recognized as the largest and most effective third-party (neutral, non-industry) certifier of responsibly harvested forest products worldwide. Criteria for FSC certification include: Adoption of methods that preserve biodiversity in the local ecosystem Reduction of environmental impacts including soil erosion and excessive chemical use Recognition of the rights of indigenous communities and of forestry workers Maintenance of a long-term forest management plan Compliance with all applicable laws and international treaties. FSC-certified lumber performs no differently from regular lumber; it is simply sourced from forests or recycled wood sources that are certified as well-managed. When you buy FSC wood through Green Depot, we can provide you with Chain of Custody (CoC) documentation for your project. This provides a guarantee that your FSC wood has been tracked all along the supply chain: from the forest to the lumber mill to any intermediate processor, distributor, or treater; and finally, to delivery at a Green Depot warehouse or your jobsite. All along the chain, FSC material is kept separate to ensure that none of it is mixed in with non-FSC wood. Sizes and availability: Comes in most standard grades of dimensional lumber and sheet products, including North American kiln-dried softwoods such as pine, spruce and Douglas fir; hardwoods such as maple, birch, and cherry; and some exotics. Many standard grades are stocked in Green Depot warehouses and can be easily transferred from one location to another, or delivered to your jobsite, in 2-5 days. For special orders, lead times may vary from 1 - 5 weeks, depending on species, quantity ordered, treatment required (exterior or flame), and other factors. What Makes it Green?
