FSC Market Tops $5 Billion
The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) has revised its estimate of the size of the global market for FSC-certified products. Previously believed to fall somewhere between $3 billion and $5 billion (see
EBN
Vol. 13, No. 10), the market is now believed to be “in excess of $5 billion.” The revision is based on the results of a global survey conducted in early 2005 that considered input from 250 certificate holders, or about 5% of all FSC-certified companies. The revised figure is also consistent with other new information, including the United Kingdom Ethical Purchasing Index. FSC is online at www.fsc.org.
