You can find the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) label on hundreds of everyday products, from milk and paper cups and plates to cosmetics and school and building supplies. The label means that the wood fiber used to make the packaging was legally sourced from responsibly managed forests, meets rigorous requirements of the SFI Standards and has undergone an independent third-party audit. By showing a preference for SFI, you are helping maintain working forests, and all the benefits they provide.
When you see the SFI label on a product, you also know that it contributes to the health and future of forests. Responsibly managed forests do the job of giving us what we need now without compromising our future needs. Beyond the products we use that improve our quality of life, responsibly managed forests are renewable resources that provide us with fresh water, clean air and recreational opportunities. Many studies have even connected spending time in forests to improved mental health.
