The following timber traders stock components made from FSC-certified
forests. Please check that the timber you require is fully covered by
a Chain of Custody certificate and ask for the identification code eg
SA-COC-1022 or SGS-CoC-0005, for proof of a valid certificate. This code
should be given on all invoices and delivery notes clearly showing which
are the FSC products.
The location of suppliers is given; but please note that most deal with
