Compliance

Certified — and checkable

Certificates get named a lot in this industry. This page says which ones apply, what each one actually covers, and how to verify it independently rather than taking our word for it.

What applies

The certificate we hold

One certification is claimed. Anything else a project needs is confirmed against your specification rather than listed here as a badge.

CertificateReferenceWhat it covers
FSCCertificate available on requestTraceability of paper and board through the supply chain to the finished box. It covers the sourcing of the board and is not a statement about ink, lamination or finishing.
Other documentationOn requestWhere a destination market or a specific material requires further documentation, we confirm what applies to your order before production rather than after.
Verification

How to check, properly

A certificate image proves very little — a logo can be placed on a page by anyone. These two checks are worth running on us and on any other supplier you shortlist.

  • FSC.Licence codes are publicly searchable in the FSC’s own certificate database. Ask for the code and confirm the holder, the scope and the expiry date there — not on a copy the supplier sends you.
  • Any other certificate.Ask for the PDF and check the certificate number against the issuing body’s own register rather than the document itself.
  • Ask before the order. Documentation should not depend on a purchase order being in place first.

What we are not claiming

FSC certification does not automatically make every box we ship an FSC-labelled product. Using the FSC mark on your packaging requires certified material to be specified for your order, and label use has its own rules.

If your brand needs the on-pack mark, say so at quotation stage so the material and the label permissions are scoped for your order. It is better to settle this early than to discover it at artwork approval.

Equally, nothing on this site quantifies a claim we have not been given — no saving, no response time, no certification beyond the one above. Where a figure is missing it is because it has not been confirmed, not because it was left out.
