Westlake Epoxy receives ISCC+ certification for mass balance epoxy technology

The certification, issued under the International Sustainability & Carbon Certification PLUS (ISCC+) scheme, covers liquid epoxy resins (LER), solid epoxy resins (SER), and liquid epoxy blends combining LER with reactive modifiers. According to Westlake Epoxy, the mass balance attribution reflects the integration of certified renewable feedstock into its supply chain, with product performance and specifications consistent with its standard epoxy resin grades.

“This is an important milestone for Westlake Epoxy in North America and a key step in bringing more renewable raw materials into our global supply chain,” said Brian Powers, senior vice president, Performance & Essential Materials. “ISCC PLUS mass balance-attributed certification at Deer Park allows us to offer U.S.-made epoxy resins produced under a certified mass balance system, with the same high performance our customers expect. It strengthens our global EpoVIVE™ platform and supports our customers as they pursue their sustainability objectives."

“Each new ISCC PLUS certification is another step in Westlake Epoxy’s strategy to integrate renewable carbon materials into our raw material supply chain, while working to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. This latest certification further demonstrates Westlake’s long-term commitment to responsible manufacturing, supporting more sustainable epoxy solutions for customers worldwide,” added Brian Powers.

With this certification, Westlake Epoxy now operates ISCC+ certified epoxy resin production across both its Duisburg, Germany and Deer Park facilities, extending mass balance-attributed supply to customers in Europe and North America.
