Tecniplast obtained the renewal of the ISCC Plus Certificate by DNV, another step to create a better world.

Climate protection and sustainable development are the big challenges for both today and the future.

It is extremely important for you, as our customer and user of products, to understand which products are produced sustainably, with the climate in mind   and which products are not – enabling you to make a more informed decision.

The ISCC PLUS certificate helps you in this mission.

The International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC) is an international certification program for the circular economy concerning the validity of specific recycled materials (e.g. mixed plastic waste), in turn already ISCC certified, and verifying the traceability of materials - this is based on the principles of mass balance accounting which was developed by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation. The ISCC PLUS Certificate is awarded once an independent evaluation is carried out by a third party.

The ISCC PLUS certification applies to any type of material, from bio-based materials derived from agricultural or forestry materials, mixed plastic waste subject to a chemical recycling process to convert materials that previously could not be recycled through traditional mechanical processes.

The ISCC certification indicates that Tecniplast are an example to the community, as leader and trendsetter in environmental and human rights protection, giving you proof of sustainability throughout our supply chain.

A ISCC PLUS certificate offers the following benefits to you:

  • A robust proof of traceability towards a sustainable source.
  • Proof of our compliance with ISCC requirements on sustainable biomass production, traceability of origin and documentation of greenhouse gas saving potential compared to fossil fuels.

The ISCC PLUS certificate is added to the other certificates and reports Tecniplast has, defining new boundaries in the industry in terms of sustainability, circularity and innovation.
