Our Accreditations
To provide confidence to our customers and partners, we ensure that solutions we provide and our business have the correct certifications and accreditations.
FSC® Certification
FSC®
stands for the Forest Stewardship Council, an international organisation that promotes responsible forest management. FSC®
sets standards for forest management, and certification helps ensure that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits.
At Test Valley Packaging, we are proud to be an FSC®-certified company. This means that we source our paper and cardboard materials from FSC®-certified forests or other controlled sources. By doing so, we are able to provide our customers with a range of eco-friendly packaging solutions that help reduce their environmental impact.
Our FSC® certification also gives our customers peace of mind, knowing that the paper and cardboard materials used in our packaging have been responsibly sourced. This aligns with the sustainability goals of many businesses and organizations, who are increasingly seeking eco-friendly packaging solutions to reduce their environmental impact.
In addition, our FSC® certification helps us to meet regulatory requirements and comply with environmental standards. It also helps us to build trust and credibility with our customers, who value sustainability and responsible sourcing.
