Setting high standards
Our certifications
Audits and inspections are key to ensuring that production activities are consistently performing to the highest standard. That explains why we insist on appointing independent bodies to check what we are doing every day in our plants, our processes and our furniture.
Our certifications, whether relating to our management systems or the quality of our products, serve as verifiable proof of our verified commitment to meet the standards’ requirements on a day-to-day basis.

PEFC
(PEFC/10-31-1991 – sustainable wood)
Guarantees that our wood is sourced from sustainably managed forests with full traceability throughout the supply chain, from the forest to the finished product.
PEFC certification (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) guarantees that the wood used in our units comes from sustainably managed forests, according to strict environmental, social and economic criteria. In addition to the origin of the material, the entire supply chain is traced and audited, from the trees felled in the forest to the finished products leaving our plants.
Traceability, which is verified by independent organisations, requires our Group to keep close tabs on every stage of the supply chain, whether sourcing, processing or manufacturing. When you choose Schmidt Groupe, you can rest assured that the forest resources used to produce your units have been sourced with full respect for the forests of both today and tomorrow.
