Kolkata, January, 2023:
Duroply has renewed its international certification by the Forest Steward Council® (FSC®), the global authority in forest management standards providing world’s most credible forest management certification schemes. Duroply’s certification has been renewed for another five years for its Rajkot factory site and covers the production of Plywood, Veneers, Block Boards, Solid Wood Boards, Wood Wool Board, Laminated Compressed Wood, Composite Board, Doors and Door Frames and Flush Door using the Transfer and Percentage System (s). Certification also covers sale of FSC Controlled Wood. The certification is provided after a rigourous inspection is carried out by internationally trained experts.




An independent audit and site inspection for Duroply was done by California headquartered SCS Global Services, a pioneer and leader in the field of sustainability standards and third-party certification, working across the economy in the natural resources, built environment, food and agriculture, consumer products and climate sectors. The assessment has been conducted by SCS Global Services in accordance with the protocols of the Forest Stewardship Council® A.C. (FSC®).




Announcing the renewal of Certification, Mr. Abhishek Chitlangia, Vice President – Manufacturing, Duroply, said, “As a legacy 65 years old Plywood Company, we are deeply committed to protecting environment. Therefore, we had voluntarily secured FSC® certification in 2016 itself. Renewal of this certification is demonstration of our continued commitment to our environment. 



We cultivate our timber sources very carefully and ensure that our suppliers adhere to global best forest friendly norms. Our manufacturing processes ensure near zero wastage of wood. As a caring company, we only use adhesives that conform to stringent European E0 emission norms. This is to ensure best of health to not only our consumers but also of our employees.”





The Rajkot facility (s) of Duroply has been certified to sell products as: FSC® 100%; FSC® Mix and FSC® Controlled Wood. FSC® 100% means all materials used come from responsibly managed, FSC®-certified forests. Products with FSC® Mix certifications mean the product is made with a mixture of materials from FSC®-certified forests, recycled materials, and/or FSC-controlled wood. While controlled wood does not come from FSC®-certified forests, it mitigates the risk of the material originating from unacceptable sources.
