AVI Attains Certification to Sell Marvin Windows with Chain of Custody Certified Wood
AVI, a Marvin Design Gallery and Atlanta, Georgia's exclusive source of Marvin window and door products, announces it has achieved Sustainable Forestry Initiative® (SFI®) and Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) chain of custody certification.
- Atlanta, GA (1888PressRelease) July 28, 2010 - Architectural Visions Inc. (AVI), a Marvin Design Gallery and Atlanta's exclusive source of Marvin window and door products, is pleased to announce it has achieved Sustainable Forestry Initiative® (SFI®) Chain of Custody Certification and Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) Chain of Custody Certification.
AVI President Peter Morrison said, "Our SFI and FSC chain of custody certifications build on our commitment to sustainability, benefiting all those who work with and live with Marvin windows and doors, as well as benefiting the environment itself. After passing a rigorous audit process, AVI demonstrated our ability to track the certified wood components of the Marvin products we provide."
By achieving these certifications, AVI is able to continue the chain of custody verification process that ensures responsibly harvested woods. In addition, for projects seeking LEED certification and working to achieve other green building standards, the ability for AVI to provide chain of custody documentation is of great value.
AVI shares the Marvin companies' genuine appreciation for the vital role that forests play in the quality of life. Properly managed forests are able to supply a continual source of wood. In fact, annually, U. S. forest growth exceeds harvest. SFI and FSC are two separate organizations that have become integral to the growing demand for verified green building products, with many local governments mandating their use. In addition, FSC-certified wood is required in LEED-qualified projects.
