FSC and Textiles: Sourcing Tree Fibers Sustainably

But there is a catch: forest-based textiles aren’t necessarily sustainable unless they are sourced from a responsibly managed forest and supply chain.

Masai
Danish fashion brand launches FSC-certified clothing
In 2019 Masai became the first ever Danish fashion brand to gain FSC certification.
It is one thing for Masai’s paper goods to be FSC certified, but the fact that the brand’s wood-based textiles are now also certified is such a significant achievement in the brand’s overall sustainability and CSR strategy because large parts of Masai’s collections are made from wood-based viscose fibres.
Their first FSC-certified collection launched in 2020, and they are aiming to FSC-certify all of their viscose by 2025.
Masai hold FSC chain of custody certification and source from FSC-certified suppliers.
