Respol Resinas receives ISCC Plus Certification

Respol Resinas has been granted with the ISCC Plus Certification for its Tall Oil Rosin Esters brand POLIMELT produced in Leiria, Portugal.


The ISCC – International Sustainability and Carbon Certification is a leading, globally applicable and industry recognized certification system for the implementation and certification of sustainable supply chains that supports the transition to a circular economy and bioeconomy. Its key pillars include traceability throughout the supply chain, feedstock identity, no deforestation, transparent rules for mass balancing and physical segregation as well as protection of biodiversity and high carbon stock areas.


When using renewable and sustainable raw materials, it is important to have credible proof of sustainability starting from the raw material. Using the established mass balance principle, Respol Resinas has proven that its rosin esters can be certified against the ISCC criteria, with full traceability throughout the supply chain.


Respol Resinas’ ISCC Plus Certification supports you as a customer in reducing environmental impact and meeting the consumer-driven demand for more circular supply chains. All non-energy applications are covered including adhesives, paintings, and coatings. By using our rosin esters, you’ll be able to achieve superior properties and promote the shift towards the circular economy and bioeconomy. By using recycled and renewable raw materials, you’ll be stopping waste from going to landfill and instead converting it into a valuable product.
