FSC Launched the FSC Brand Hub in April 2025, a new platform designed to streamline trademark management and marketing & communications. The platform was developed with input from users around the world and is tailored to the needs of FSC certificate holders, promotional licence holders, and certification bodies.
This new platform is replacing the Trademark Portal and Marketing Toolkit. To allow a smooth transition, FSC Brand Hub has been running alongside the legacy systems since April 2025, giving users the opportunity to explore and familiarise themselves with its features. On 20 March 2026, the legacy systems will be completely phased out and will no longer be accessible.
(Please note: phase out date has been pushed back from 13 March to 20 March).
What is the FSC Brand Hub?
The FSC Brand Hub is a one-stop solution for on-product labels, marketing campaigns and creating custom assets. It is:
- Simple and intuitive: Easy navigation and streamlined journeys for all users.
- Comprehensive: Access to trademark designs, customisable assets, campaigns, and guidelines all in one place.
- Personalised: Features like bookmarks and notifications create a personalised experience to fit various needs.

Updates to the FSC Brand Hub
FSC Brand Hub is undergoing improvements over the coming months to reflect updated requirements for Promotional Licence Holders and to enhance overall functionality.
- The first update, released on 30 January, introduced warning messages across the website to highlight which designs will be retired when the new Trademark Use Guide for Promotional Licence Holders is published.
- The next update is planned for 1 June, coinciding with the release of the new Guide, and will remove the retiring designs from the platform.
