Individual certification, that is, of a single unit (site). Chain of custody (CoC) certification guarantees traceability from the production of the raw material that leaves the forests to the final consumer.

Companies that are linked by partnership or legal/contractual agreements. This model makes certification easier and cheaper for large companies that are able to benefit from centralized administration and control of the inner workings in order to achieve FSC® certification. 

It is specially designed for the certification of small independent enterprises that, by forming a group, are able to have easy access to FSC® certification by sharing the certification costs and benefiting from the technical support and control offered by a Central Office. 

The certification of controlled wood applies to all companies whose scope involves products with wood raw materials, in order to avoid raw materials from unacceptable sources. 

Recovered material certification applies to organizations that use inputs from recovered materials (paper or wood recycling). 

Project certification is applied to specific projects where the raw material comes from a certified forest base, such as furniture, rooms and boats, among others.
