Following the ISCC PLUS (International Sustainability & Carbon Certification) obtained for both of its Italian production sites, Vinavil began purchasing BIO-attributed Vinyl Acetate last month.
This marks an important step: from now on, BIO-attributed vinylic polymers will be available alongside our existing BIO-attributed acrylic product range.
Products labeled with the suffix BIO are based on a partial replacement of fossil raw materials with sustainable, renewable alternatives. The term "BIO-attributed" indicates that the use of biobased feedstock has been accounted for using the mass balance approach, in accordance with the ISCC PLUS certification scheme - verified and certified by an independent third party.
All deliveries are accompanied by a "sustainability declaration" specifying the share of raw materials from renewable sources, which can vary from 5% to 40%, depending on the product.
Our BIO-attributed polymers are offered as "drop-in" solutions - meaning they can be used as a direct substitute for traditional products, offering improved sustainability (such as a lower carbon footprint) without the need for technical requalification.
