Arkema, a leader in specialty materials, has obtained yet another ISCC PLUS certification for its acrylic monomers production facility located in Clear Lake, Texas (US), following the same certifications in Taixing, China and Carling, France.
“We are committed to advancing bio-attributed initiatives, using a mass balance* approach, through all steps of Arkema’s integration and at a global scale, Casey COLLINS, Acrylics Monomers Regional Group President, Americas, said. “It is another key milestone towards an industry-wide decarbonization and circularity efforts that will help our customers and end users reduce greenhouse gas emissions from coatings and adhesives for key markets like new mobility, building efficiency and living comfort; as well as in applications like engineered polymers, leather, textile, hygiene and water treatment.”
These certifications pave the way for the phased introduction of a comprehensive portfolio of biobased specialty resins and additives that cater to environmentally friendly technologies, such as low-VOC and low-carbon intensity products, including high-solid, waterborne, UV/LED-curable, and polyester powder solutions, according to the company.
