I am a non executive director of a new small company selling teak garden furniture fome renewable sources. I thought we could rely on the F.S.c. certification but on reading your letter in the in a recent publication, I now wonder if this is so - and if not on what if anything one can rely. Any help you can give will be appreciated.
