Routledge Mental Health has been awarded the highly respected Chain of Custody Certification in accordance with the rules of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).
The award applies to our three UK sites where books and journals by Routledge are produced.
The Chain-of-Custody shows the businesses comply with the highest social and environmental practices, supporting the world's forests and timber resources. The FSC supports forests, ensuring they are conserved for future generations. It tracks certified material from the forest through the production process all the way to the point of sale.
The FSC is a non-profit organisation founded in 1993 and key supporters include Greenpeace, World Wildlife Fund, many indigenous peoples' organisations, timber traders and retailers and members of printing industries worldwide.
