Henkel Adhesive Technologies' polyurethane production at its Düsseldorf, Germany, site has recently received the International Sustainability Carbon Certification (ISCC) PLUS certification.
ISCC PLUS is a voluntary scheme that attests to the proper management of recycled and biomass-derived raw materials across the supply chain, including in production processes.
Five labeling products by Henkel have been recognized by the Association of Plastic Recyclers for meeting the highest criteria for recyclability according to the APR Design Guide for Plastics Recyclability.
The award places Westlake Epoxy among the top 5% of businesses in the chemical industry receiving this recognition from EcoVadis, a trusted provider of business sustainability ratings.
The certification marks a significant milestone for the company, which is already certified at its European sites in Monheim, Germany; Marl, Germany; Oberhausen, Germany; and Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
The certification of the Clear Lake facility follows the same certifications in Taixing, China, in January of 2024 and in Carling, France, in October of 2022.
