FSC Mixed Sources Label- this label states that it supports the development of responsible forest management worldwide and that the wood comes from well managed forests, company controlled sources and/or recycled material. When adding the recycled symbol this identifies the product as being a post-consumer recycled paper.

Make sure that when you are designing an FSC piece that you pick the right logo, there is a logo guideline available on their website for downloading. However, printers usually have their own logo with a specific code that acts as their own special code used in the approval process before printing.
