PEFC: on the path to EUDR alignment, December 2024
EU Deforestation Regulation
On 11 December, we gave the latest update in the PEFC alignment to EUDR webinar series, sharing the latest news from the European Commission as well as the roll out of the new PEFC EUDR compliance support solution.
We touched on the alignment of our Sustainable Forest Management benchmark, the PEFC EUDR DDS module as well as the partnerships with technology experts to ensure data management. The session was designed for companies working toward EUDR compliance, consultancies supporting clients, brand owners and retailers aligning procurement standards, and anyone involved in EUDR compliance within the timber products industry.
Highlights
- Participants heard from our EU representative about the latest EUDR legislative updates and PEFC’s proactive response,
