At Pirelli, we are committed to no deforestation and the responsible procurement of natural rubber. FSC® is today one of the most rigorous and trusted forest certification systems, as well as one of the most recognized worldwide3.
What’s at stake
FSC® certification confirms that a natural rubber plantation is managed in a way that preserves biological diversity and benefits the lives of local communities and workers. FSC® certification indicates:
Conservation of biodiversity and responsible forest management.
Benefits for workers and local communities.
Separation of certified and non-certified material, from plantation to tyre manufacturer.
