PEFC is the largest forest certification system in the world and thecertification system of choice for small forest owners, with more than 300million hectares in 49 nations. Headquartered in Geneva,Switzerland, PEFC provides independent assessment, endorsement, and recognitionof national forest certification systems.

PEFC in Southeast Asia has built strategic partnerships to make a sustainable rubber industry a reality. PEFC's efforts are rooted in the fact that 85 percent of the world’s natural rubber comes from SoutheastAsia, with the majority of it produced by millions of smallholders on smallscale.

Over the past years PEFC has been working on pilot projects to certify groupsof smallholders in Thailand, expand chain of custody certification for rubber woodin Malaysia, and bring new supplies of certified rubber online in Vietnam.Those projects set the stage for a transformation in 2021.

From the demand side, PEFC partnered with Weber& Schaer, one of the largest natural rubber trading houses, and Unilin, a global leader in hardwood flooring and panelling thatrelies on rubberwood. 

Weber & Schaer cited the large-scale certification of VRG as the triggerfor them to get certified, adding that this is a strong indication that demandexists for environmentally friendly rubber, and that supplier certification cantrigger certification of buyers.

In addition to VRG, PEFC and its partners in Vietnam are also activelysupporting groups of households in Thua Thien-Hue, Lang Son and Yen Bai provinces, withabout 6,000 hectares of forest certified for sustainable forest management  in accordance with VFCS/PEFC standards./.
