The Australian Forestry Standard (AS 4708) embodies forest management performance criteria that drive continual improvement towards sustainable wood production in Australia. This Standard has received international recognition and stakeholder support including the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification Schemes (PEFC) which is well recognized in Europe.

Consumers and Retailers are becoming more sensitive when selecting wood products and related services. They are becoming more aware about: the environment, social consequences and forest management practices employed in the growing and harvesting of the trees.
