Access to supply chain information is necessary for confirming and documenting:

1) Material origin down to the plot of land (including FSC certified material or FSC Controlled Wood).

2) Risks related to origin and mixing with non-negligible inputs in the supply chain.

3) Mitigation of these risks if applicable.

Clear, verifiable information confirming that relevant products are deforestation-free and produced in line with the country's legislation need to be collected and kept.

NOTE: Access implies having copies of this information during audits or ensuring that the certification body or ASI can obtain copies upon request before the audit concludes.
