UK Woodland Assurance Standard
The UK Woodland Assurance Standard (UKWAS) is an independent certification standard for verifying sustainable woodland management in the UK that is used for both Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) certification.
The standard is reviewed every five years and the start of a formal process to revise the UKWAS standard was announced in January 2021. An independent multi-stakeholder working group is taking forward the work.
