"We are excited to support this market-leading technology and excellent management team. There is a clear and increasing need for improved traceability in the timber industry, and Helveta's CI World system has the potential to become the de facto global standard in this sector. The Company has made encouraging progress since we last invested in 2008, winning a number of highly significant contracts and playing a strategic role in helping countries comply with the requirements of the EU’s Forestry Law Enforcement, Government and Trade (FLEGT) process. As the only commercially deployed, electronic traceability system in the timber sector Helveta is uniquely placed to become the industry standard."

“As a company that is enjoying global success, we are proud to continue supporting Helveta as it builds on five years of solid achievements to become a global leader in the timber tracking sector. The tougher legislative environment, coupled with the growing ambition of timber producing countries for recovering lost revenues and for enhancing social responsibility, makes us confident that Helveta is well placed to become a prominent ambassador for the sustainable management of forests. Think of it as the ‘FAIRTRADE’ Mark for the global timber industry."
