Dore Advanced Materials PPS Resin Eco-Friendly International Certification
Use of Plant-Based Bionaphtha and Waste Plastic Pyrolysis Oil
Same Properties as Existing PPS Resin... Certification Also Pursued at Japan Donghae Plant
Toray Advanced Materials announced on the 12th that it has obtained the ISCC PLUS certification, an international sustainability certification system, for the PPS resin produced at its Gunsan plant in Jeonbuk.
The PPS resin certified this time is made using raw materials derived from plant-based bio-naphtha and pyrolysis oil from waste plastics, and it possesses the same physical properties as conventional PPS resin. The company explained that it is expected to enhance the ESG competitiveness of its customers as well.
The ISCC PLUS certification is an international certification system granted by verifying the overall sustainability of the product production process based on the European Union (EU) renewable energy policy standards.
PPS is a super engineering plastic with excellent heat resistance, chemical resistance, and mechanical strength, capable of replacing metals. Demand is increasing mainly for lightweight electric vehicles and electronic components, and it is expanding into electric and electronic devices, housing equipment, and industrial parts.
Toray Group, the world's largest PPS resin maker, plans to obtain ISCC PLUS certification for its Tokai plant in Aichi Prefecture, Japan, and promote the establishment of a global supply system for environmentally friendly PPS resin.
