Sasol Chemicals obtains certification from ISCC for its three largest European sites

July 28, 2022 |

In Germany, Sasol Chemicals, a business unit of Sasol, has earned certification from the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) system for its three largest manufacturing facilities in Europe.

The company’s facilities in Marl and Brunsbüttel, Germany, and Augusta, Italy, have earned ISCC-PLUS certification for the use of mass balanced bio-based and recycled feedstocks in the production of alcohols, ethoxylates, linear alkylbenzenes and derivatives.

ISCC is a certification system that offers solutions for the implementation and certification of sustainable, deforestation-free and traceable supply chains of agricultural, forestry, waste and residue raw materials, non-bio renewables and recycled carbon materials and fuels.

Sasol Chemicals’ German facilities are using mass balanced bio-ethylene, made from plant-based biomass and waste, along with recycled ethylene. Its Augusta facility is using mass balanced bio-benzene, recycled benzene and bio-recycled benzene. These sustainable products are mixed with traditional feedstocks in a process called mass balancing.
