Certifications structured, verified, and linked.
FSC, PEFC, ISPM15: every certification your supply chain requires, collected from suppliers, validated, and linked to the products and shipments they cover.
Not managed by email. Managed in a system, the same one we run ourselves.
Certifications are everywhere. A central record rarely is.
Most timber companies manage certifications the same way: by email, in folders, across inboxes. It works until it does not.
Fragmented across suppliers
Every supplier delivers certifications in a different format, at a different time, through a different channel. No single source of truth, only a collection of files scattered across inboxes and shared drives.
Managed manually by email
Certificates are requested, chased, received, and filed manually. When a document expires, nobody is automatically notified. When an auditor asks, someone has to search for it.
Hard to verify at scale
Confirming that every active supplier holds a valid certification, and that it covers the products in every shipment, is nearly impossible to do consistently without a structured system.
One place for every certification in your supply chain.
Timberhub collects, validates, and structures certification data from your suppliers, and links it directly to the products, orders, and shipments it covers.
Certification data is collected from suppliers as part of the onboarding workflow, not chased separately by email.
Documents are validated against certificate type requirements: issuing body, scope, expiry date, and product coverage.
Each certification is linked to the relevant product catalogue entries and automatically associated with the shipments it applies to.
Records remain accessible across workflows: visible to your team, shareable with buyers, and audit-ready at any point.
How certifications move through the system.
Certifications support EUDR, but they don't replace it.
FSC and PEFC are the foundation. EUDR adds three things on top — geolocation, risk assessment, and a filed Due Diligence Statement per shipment. Here's the gap, clearly:
- Sustainable forestry practices, audited periodically
- Chain-of-custody tracking through the supply chain
- Recognised mark accepted across procurement specs
- Plot-level geolocationPolygon coordinates for every concession or plot, per shipment
- Deforestation risk assessmentCross-checked against the post-2020 cut-off (31 Dec 2020)
- Due Diligence StatementFiled in TRACES with a reference number returned to the buyer
Compliance is a conversation, not a pitch.
We start by mapping what you already manage: certifications, EUDR records, supplier documentation, and where the real gaps are. Then we tell you what Timberhub can take off your plate, and what we can't.
