The Portucel Soporcel Group has just obtained the certification of the woodland assets under its management under PEFC - Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification Schemes. This achievement comes on top of the certification granted in December 2007 by FSC – Forest Stewardship Council and represents another leap forwards in the Group’s operations in this field, adding further weight to its presence in the international market, where manufacturers are subject to increasingly tough requirements as to the sourcing of their raw materials.
