Forests provide far more than timber. They store carbon, protect biodiversity, support communities, and sustain ecosystems around the world. Yet today, forest owners are often rewarded only once — when trees are harvested. What if circularity could change that? In this video, the FSC Circularity Hub explores how verified forest-related data could continue creating value throughout multiple material cycles in a circular economy. By enabling trusted information to follow fibres through their journey, including origin, biodiversity conditions, social safeguards, deforestation status, and compliance-related data, new opportunities could emerge for companies, forest owners, and responsible supply chains alike. The idea? Creating a model where forest owners may benefit not just from harvesting, but every time fibres from their forests continue generating value across reuse and recycling cycles. The FSC Circularity Hub aims to spark dialogue, inspire collaboration, and explore innovative pathways toward a more circular future for forests. How does this idea resonate with you?
