The full name of the ISCC system is International Sustainability & Carbon Certification, which originated in Germany and is the first standard to meet the EU's "Renewable Energy Directive" (2009 28 EC Red), which was implemented in 2010 and has now developed into an internationally recognized certification system.
At present, it is divided into three certification systems: ISCC EU, ISCC PLUS and ISCC Corsia. The ISCC covers all sustainable feedstocks, including biomass from agriculture, forestry and aquaculture, biowaste and residues, non-biorenewable materials, circular materials and renewable energy. It originated in Germany and is an open, multi-stakeholder initiative that leads the certification system in supporting sustainable, traceable, deforestation-free and climate-friendly chains. We are committed to protecting forests, high-carbon lands and biodiversity for environmental, social and economic sustainability.
SCC currently has more than 4,000 active certificates worldwide, and the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) Plus supports the circular and bioeconomy by providing certifications that promote environmental, social and economic sustainable production. It provides reliable sustainability certification for all types of agricultural and forestry raw materials, waste and residues, non-biotic renewable energy sources, and their respective **chains, and is the world's leading certification program in the field of circular economy and bioeconomy.
ISCC Plus certification is a voluntary scheme for the bioeconomy and circular economy of food, feed, chemicals, plastics, packaging, textiles and renewable raw materials. All kinds of biomass, waste and residues, abiotic recycles and **carbon materials can be certified by ISCC Plus.
ISCC Plus is aimed at all companies that want to prove that their raw materials come from sustainable**. This mainly includes bio-based raw materials, such as agricultural and forest products, but also circular raw materials, such as waste and substances. As a result, the ISCC Plus certification expands the possibilities for companies to have their processes and production as well as the sustainability of the ** chain certified by independent certification bodies.
Core Benefits of ISCC Plus Certification:
Through this certification, the ISCC logo is used to meet customer needs, expand market share, and enhance brand premium
Reuse of resources, e.g. frames are generally made of acetate and lenses are made of copolyester. Acetate and copolyester are used to produce the glasses we wear and the mobile phone cases we use through chemical reuse of waste plastics such as beverage bottles and children's old toys discarded in our daily life.
