Virumaa Metsaühistu

The Virumaa Metsaühistu was founded in 2001 as the Iisaku Metsaühistu, which at that time operated only on a rural municipality basis. Under the leadership of its chairman, Viktor Lehtse, activities were expanded across the county and the name was changed to the Virumaa Metsaühistu.

To date, more than 400 forest owners with over 10,000 hectares of forest have joined the association.

FSC Certification. Metsaühistu

FSC Certification

Since 16.10.2013, the Central Cooperative of Private Forests has been managing the FSC forest certification.

The FSC certificate ensures that raw materials are separated from non-certified and uncontrolled forest material throughout the supply chain, making it possible to determine the origin of the material and trace it to the final product.
