This collaboration strengthens allnex’s commitment to reduce environmental impact and achieving industry-leading certifications across multiple global sites.

allnex is advancing its sustainability strategy through a key partnership with the International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC).

ISCC is a globally recognised certification system ensuring sustainable, deforestation-free, and climate-friendly supply chains. Covering biomass, biogenic waste, recycled carbon materials, and non-biological renewables, ISCC has issued over 11,000 certificates across 130+ countries. The ISCC PLUS certification applies a mass balance approach to track certified materials, seamlessly integrating into allnex’s ISO-9001-certified global management systems.

“Our ISCC PLUS certified sites and technologies showcase our commitment to sustainability, providing traceability throughout our supply chain. We are proud to support our customers with high-performing products that help them deliver on their environmental responsibilities,” has stated Benoit De Becker, Senior Vice-President Corporate Development & Innovation.

In collaboration with ISCC, allnex has helped introduce new chemical categories, including polyester acrylates and amino resins, furthering its leadership in sustainable innovation. Since earning its first ISCC PLUS certification at Bergen op Zoom (Netherlands) and Werndorf (Austria) in 2022, allnex has expanded certification to nine global sites.

In 2023, its Drogenbos (Belgium) site became the first ISCC-certified acrylates producer, followed by Lillestrøm (Norway) in 2024, now certified for amino resins. By leveraging ISCC PLUS and the mass balance approach, allnex is driving the transition towards a more sustainable coatings industry.

"allnex’s efforts demonstrate the impact of collaboration in driving industry-wide change. As an ISCC systems user, allnex has contributed to the expansion range of ISCC PLUS certified materials, promoting greater transparency and environmental responsibility in the chemical sector," has concluded Haridharan Krishnan, ISCC PLUS System Manager.
