Welcome To Evercover
The greatest step forward in Sustainable Forest Management
Group certification is the easiest way for a forest owner to join EverCover certification.
Existing certifications fail to protect biodiversity
Even in countries with a high percentage of certified forests, biodiversity is in decline, and scientists do not endorse current systems as sustainable
Current systems allow destructive practices
Such as the logging of High Conservation Value Forests (HCVFs) and limitless clear-cutting.
The new certificate mandates strict protections
Including preserving naturally valuable sites and protecting at least 10% of the forest area. The certificate also includes specific environmental rules and practices to address:
- Forest-related climate emissions
- Erosion and loading of the water bodies
- Bird and wildlife endangerment
- Monoculture forests
- Scarcity of deadwood
Read how the Certification addresses the following topics
THE WELL-BEING OF NATURE IS THE FOUNDATION OF EVERYTHING
According to AEFC, ecological, social, and economic sustainability are not equal, because without ecological sustainability, the other dimensions of sustainability cannot be realized.
CLIMATE RESILIENCE THROUGH CONTINUOUS COVER FORESTRY
In an EverCover forest, carbon is stored in the trees, the soil, and the wood products.
FORESTS ARE OUR SHARED RESOURCE
The diverse values provided by forests generate well-being, the importance of which should not be underestimated.
HIGHER PROFITS FROM LONG-LIVED WOOD PRODUCTS
Continuous cover forestry combines ecological responsibility with economic competitiveness.
