Further consolidating ITC’s Triple Bottom Line performance, the four units of ITC’s Paperboards & Specialty Papers Division i.e. Bhadrachalam, Bollaram, Kovai and Tribeni, received the prestigious ‘FSC® Chain of Custody’ certification.
The FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) is an independent, non-governmental, not for profit organisation established to promote the responsible management of the world’s forests and is recognised as the gold standard in wood certification for ethical and legal sourcing. The FSC is represented in more than 50 countries around the world and is the most widely accepted and respected amongst forest product certification schemes.
The FSC endorsement implies that an organisation complies with its principles and criteria in the different areas of its functioning. ITC’s Paper & Paperboards Division can now supply FSC certified paper / paperboards from all its four Units with the FSC Claim of ‘FSC Mixed’ or ‘FSC Recycled’.
The FSC certification for ITC’s Paperboards and Specialty Papers Units exemplifies the organisation’s continued commitment to sustainable business practices and to the building of an inclusive and secure future for both its stakeholders and the larger society. |
