Sustainability

Apical has been FSC certified since 2012 and the company guarantees that all of its plantations and logs that are produced meet the highest standards of responsible forest management. Additionally, Apical is a good neighbor; supporting local schools and initiatives, such as La Fundación Pro Niños de Darién, and maintaining public roads.

Apical exceeds the FSC requirement of 10% protected area, through maintaining conservation areas amounting to 23% of its area. Apical is also seeing the plantations as a valuable environmental resource. In addition to the obvious benefits of carbon storage and erosion control, through our wildlife monitoring program, we have observed numerous species of animals living and foraging in the plantations.
