Documents

Much of PEFC's spectrum of activities is based on technical documentation outlining principles, criteria, and procedures.

All of these documents have been developed in multi-stakeholder process, and we are tremendously grateful for the expertise and knowledge that external parties have contributed to this work.
PEFC's technical documentation aims to:
  • define clear and unambiguous provisions
  • be uniform of structure, style and terminology to ensure homogeneity
  • be consistent with the complete body of the PEFC Council documentation.

To this end, PEFC utilizes a documentation structure to clearly distinguish between:
  • PEFC International Standards: Standards are documents established by consensus and approved by a recognised body, that provide, for common and repeated use, rules, guidelines or characteristics for activities or their results, aimed at the achievement of the optimum degree or order in a given context.  PEFC International Standards are adopted by the General Assembly.
  • PEFC Guides: Guides are published by the PEFC Council giving mandatory rules, orientation, advice, interpretation or recommendation relating to PEFC International Standards and/or other PEFC activities.

PEFC also makes available all endorsement-related documentation by national certification systems.  This includes national standards as well as the complete assessment report.
