EGGER (UK)’s commitment to the environment can be gauged by its support of the Forestry Stewardship
Council (FSC). The FSC sets standards for forest management and promotes “environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable management of the world’s forests”.

EGGER (UK) Ltd has fully embraced these beliefs achieving FSC accreditation thus ensuring that all products manufactured by EGGER UK are fully certified FSC products showing chain of custody.

This provides independent accreditation that the wood used in the EGGER (UK) plants is sourced from well managed, sustainable forests.

To help secure timber supplies that are required for the production processes, EGGER has its own timber harvesting company. The company, EGGER Forestry, harvests timber within the catchment areas of both the Scottish and English production plants. Sharing the same philosophy as its parent, EGGER Forestry is strongly committed to protecting and improving the environment. The Forestry Company holds the ISO 140001 environmental accreditation.

As part of a European group, EGGER (UK) import a range of products manufactured from its parent and sister companies. The EGGER group of companies as a whole is committed to the principles of FSC and is currently rolling out implementation of chains of custody throughout all manufacturing sites in Europe. The ability for these sites to then offer FSC certified products will depend on the increasing availability of locally supplied FSC certified timber products.
