Huntsman Polyurethanes Earns ISCC+ Certification for TPU Plants

Huntsman has announced that its Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) manufacturing sites in Jinshan, China, and Osnabrück, Germany, have earned ISCC+ Certification, a global standard for sustainability and supply chain traceability. This certification highlights Huntsman’s commitment to enhancing transparency and supporting sustainable practices across its operations.

ISCC+ is a globally recognized voluntary standard for companies producing recycled and bio-based products. It ensures full traceability throughout the production process using a mass balance approach. This chain-of-custody model allows for tracking the sustainability characteristics of recycled and bio-based materials across the value chain, attributing them to specific products through verifiable bookkeeping, thereby ensuring transparency and accountability.

We are extremely proud that our Jinshan and Osnabrück sites have joined Huntsman’s Rotterdam, The Netherlands and Wilton, UK sites in earning ISCC+ Certification. This milestone demonstrates our commitment to supporting the transition to circular economy principles. Securing ISCC+ Certification requires meticulous scrutiny of supply chain practices, sustainability measures, and compliance with rigorous environmental, social, and traceability standards. Congratulations to our associates who have worked tirelessly to achieve this accreditation
