The Group’s subsidiaries, Pesaka Trengganu Berhad (“Pesaka”) and Pesama Timber Corporation Sdn Bhd (“Pesama”), have successfully obtained the Chain-of-Custody (“CoC”) certification for the sawmills from a third party certifier accredited by the FSC® since July 2008. With this certification, it means that the wood used in the sawmills come from well-managed forests, independently certified in accordance with the criteria and principles set by the FSC®.

This would also mean that Pesama and Pesaka are well placed to market their sawn timber and other wood based products in markets which insist on wood products to be sourced from sustainable and well managed forests.
