Celanese achieves Carbon Footprint Certification from ISCC for POM grades
Last update on Dec 16, 2025
Celanese Corporation has achieved Carbon Footprint Certification (CFC) from International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC) for its Hostaform® and Celcon® POM ECO-C grades at production sites in Frankfurt, Germany, and Bishop, Texas - expanding its network of certified facilities to empower customers to reduce product carbon footprints and accelerate the transition to a circular economy. This milestone underscores Celanese’s commitment to sustainability and innovation.
Advancing lower-carbon solutions
This certification is the result of Celanese’s major investment in Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU) technology at its Clear Lake, Texas facility as a part of its Fairway Methanol joint venture with Mitsui & Co., Ltd. - one of the world’s largest active CCU plants. The process captures CO₂ emissions and converts them into methanol, reducing fossil-based inputs without compromising material performance.
