Westlake Corporation’s Deer Park, Texas, epoxy plant has earned the International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC) PLUS. This certification applies to its liquid and solid epoxy resins, as well as various epoxy blends used in industries like wind energy, automotive, construction, and electronics. Effective immediately, Westlake can offer customers products featuring ISCC+ certified renewable feedstock via a mass-balance approach.

These solutions support sustainability objectives while maintaining the same quality, performance, and specifications as our standard epoxy resins.

“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.

Following the certification of its Duisburg, Germany, and Deer Park, U.S., facilities, Westlake Epoxy is expanding the availability of its ISCC PLUS-certified epoxy resins. By using renewable feedstocks through a mass-balance approach, the company is supporting customers across North America and Europe in reaching their sustainability goals.
