Forest Certification & Chain of Custody

Certified Forest Management

All of the softwood resource used in the production of Hyne’s products is sourced from sustainably managed plantations in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria. These forests are independently certified for compliance with the Australian Forest Standard AS4708(Int)-2003 (AFS) under Australian Forest Certification Scheme. The AFS has mutual recognition by the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification Scheme (PEFC). PEFC is the world’s largest forest certification organisation.

Chain of Custody

Hyne currently has Chain of Custody (CoC) Product Certification for Hyne Araucaria from the Mary Valley and for Hyne Frame produced at Tuan and Tumbarumba. We also have CoC Certification for Hyne Glulam and Hyne I-Beam.

This Chain of Custody Certification guarantees for Hyne’s customers and end-users of Hyne products that the products have been sourced from softwood plantation forests that comply with the Australian Forest Standard (AFS/PEFC).
