Here are the main FSC logos plus a few others for you to review. °NOTE: Be sure to build some extra time into your production schedule when you want to include these logos on your job. The FSC has 5 variations and are very strict with usage rules. You MUST use a FSC certified printer (like Sexton) in order to carry the FSC logo or lanquage.
