Abstract

A climatic event of exceptional significance (Vaia storm) occurred at the end of October 2018 in the north-eastern area of Italy. The severe effects caused by the storm prompted the birth of a new sustainability label, “Filiera Solidale PEFC - Vaia2018 - insieme si può” regulated by a specific certification scheme (“Filiera Solidale PEFC”) that was designed by PEFC-Italy with the aim of addressing Italian woodcompanies to the purchase of wood from collapsed trees, instead of using imported wood, to help forest owners and to contribute to a faster recovery of forest ecosystems damaged by the storm. In this work the “Filiera Solidale PEFC” certification scheme is described and the first results in terms of companies and organizations that have joined the initiative are presented.
