Arkema, a leader in specialty materials, has earned ISCC PLUS certification of its specialty (meth)acrylate oligomers and monomers production sites in Chatham, Va. and West Chester, Pa. (US). As a result, Arkema can now offer bio-attributed energy-curable solutions from their UV-LED-EB resin production facilities worldwide.

This network includes the recently certified sites in the US as well as in Nansha, China and Villers-St-Paul, France. These Sartomer® solutions are used across a wide range of applications, including performance coatings, adhesives, inks, electronics, green mobility, living comfort, 3D printing and more.

“ISCC PLUS is an important certification for our industry, and we can now offer customers worldwide access to our bio-attributed UV-LED-EB oligomers and monomers. This achievement also expands our network of certified facilities in support of diverse industries and technologies, helping companies across the value chain to reach their objectives of carbon footprint reduction,” Stephanie Montag, Regional President at Sartomer Americas.

The range of Sartomer bio-attributed solutions helps to reduce the product carbon footprint and reinforces the established bio-based offer, which includes oligomers and monomers with up to 85% biobased content. Select products also feature the USDA Certified Biobased Product label through the USDA BioPreferred Program.

The ISCC PLUS certification of products made at these Arkema manufacturing site adds to the Arkema Coating Solutions certifications worldwide. Arkema’s strategy is to progressively introduce a complete range of bio-attributed specialty resins and additives, including high solids, waterborne, UV-LED-EB, and polyester powder materials.
