The FSC label
The FSC 'check tree' logo is applied to products that come from environmentally and socially responsible sources.
- On-product (Certified Products) labeling is when the FSC logo is used to identify a product that is FSC-certified (i.e. paper, lumber). The logo may be used on the products themselves or on their packaging or labelling. Such uses include product tags, stencils, retail packaging for small loose products (such as pencils) etc. Only FSC certificate holders are provided with these labels. It is the responsibility of certified companies to get approval for the use of labels from their certifier.

- Off-product (Promotion) labeling is when the FSC logo is used for promotional or educational purposes in articles, brochures, web sites etc. You must receive approval from FSC Canada for the use of the logo in this manner.
