The Chain of Custody (CoC) scheme for forests is a process of verifying that the origin of the certified wood and timber products is indeed from forests for which there is some form of forest management certification. In order to provide the verification, careful tracking of the wood and timber products is required through all the links of the supply chain from the forest to the markets in which the timber or other wood based product carries the claim.
