SFI Inc. is an independent, registered charitable organization under section 501(c)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code that promotes sustainable forest management across North America and responsible fiber procurement globally.
SFI Inc.’s 18-member multi-stakeholder Board of Directors comprises three chambers, representing environmental, economic and social interests equally, so it can meet the many needs of forests and communities. Board members include representatives of environmental, conservation, professional and academic groups, independent professional loggers, small family forest owners, public officials, labor and the forest products industry. The Board updates the SFI Standard every five years following a public review process, and based on recommendations from volunteer, multi-stakeholder committees. The Board is the only body that can modify the standard. |
