Rainforest-friendly sustainable practices

Malaysia is covered in lush rainforests, providing a wealth of natural resources, chief among which is quality timber. The timber industry in Malaysia is managed sustainably, ensuring minimal environmental impact, continued supply of high grade timber and a preserved natural heritage for generations to come.

Steps to further enhance verifiability of source legality include progressing towards 100% tree-tagging and computer tracking under a mandatory Chain-of-Custody scheme. Enforcement systems have been installed to ensure that Malaysia's forest agencies, supported by the Police and Customs Department, can effectively eradicate illegal forest practices.
