Certification
Certificates on a plywood order aren't interchangeable — each one verifies a different claim, from sustainable sourcing to formaldehyde emission limits.
FSC Chain of Custody confirms traceable, responsibly sourced timber. CARB P2 compliance addresses formaldehyde emissions for panels entering markets like the United States. CE marking relates to construction product regulation within the EU.
Before placing an order, confirm which certificates your destination market actually requires — we can supply documentation matched to your import regulations.
