WISA PLYWOOD

Compliance, documentation & risk reduction

In a complex regulatory environment, WISA Plywood acts as your dedicated compliance partner. We provide the precise, verifiable data required to operate safely, reduce your business risks, and stay ahead of evolving legislation.

 

We proactively prepare for complex EU legislation, including the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) and the Green Claims Directive.

Our environmental performance is proven through third-party verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs), crucial documents for our customers to calculate their environmental perfomance. Furthermore, all WISA products comply with the latest product safety regulations (EU GPSR), meet the M1/E1 emission classifications, and adhere to strict formaldehyde limits (TSCA Title VI), ensuring clean and healthy indoor air.

This complete documentation package provides the peace of mind and calculation data required by increasingly strict regulations, such as those mandating climate impact assessments by 2026.

 

The new compliance landscape demands verified documentation

Construction and manufacturing industries face unprecedented regulatory requirements. By 2026, you'll need:

EUDR compliance
with full traceability documentation
Third party verified
EPD/LCA documents for all products
Updated formaldehyde limits
meeting EU 2023/1464 standards
GPSR documentation
for product safety compliance
 

Non-compliance isn't just about fines – it's about project delays, lost specifications, and damaged relationships. We've built our documentation systems to protect your business.
