Chain of Custody is now a fundamental concept for all companies operating in the timber and wood-based materials sector. The ISO 38200 standard defines the requirements to ensure the traceability of wood throughout the entire supply chain, from the origin of raw materials to the final product. Applying these standards means offering the market a concrete guarantee of sustainability, legality, and responsibility.

Through the specialized consultancy of CMG Swiss, companies can effectively implement a management system compliant with ISO 38200. This process makes it possible to monitor every stage of production, reducing risks related to sourcing from uncontrolled origins and strengthening the company’s reputation. The chain of custody thus becomes a competitive advantage, capable of opening access to new markets and customers who are increasingly attentive to transparency.

Managing the chain of custody is not only about complying with an international standard, but also about actively contributing to forest protection and the fight against illegal timber trade. Companies that adopt ISO 38200 demonstrate a commitment to environmental sustainability, improve stakeholder trust, and position themselves as reliable long-term partners.

CMG Swiss supports companies with initial analysis, process definition, and staff training, providing practical tools to integrate the standard in a simple and effective way. This consultancy enables the development of a streamlined, efficient management system focused on continuous improvement. Investing in ISO 38200 means not only compliance, but also growth and credibility in the sector.
