BASF’s Minhang and Zhanjiang engineering plastics plants have gained ISCC PLUS certification covering renewable and recycled feedstocks.
Mass balance verification adds traceability of sustainable origin and allocation, expanding certified materials in China.
Automotive and electrical and electronics customers gain local options to support sustainability claims without performance trade-offs.
“The ISCC PLUS certification of our Shanghai and Zhanjiang operations reflects our commitment to delivering verified, low‑carbon material solutions at scale,” said Andy Postlethwaite, Senior Vice President, Performance Materials Asia Pacific. “Local certification strengthens supply reliability and helps customers accelerate their green transformation while maintaining the performance they require.”
The certification is part of BASF’s broader expansion of sustainable product offerings across Asia Pacific, extending ISCC PLUS coverage from Korea and Malaysia to additional sites in China, and enabling more traceable material choices for local customers. To date, close to 70% of BASF’s Performance Materials sites in Asia Pacific have been ISCC PLUS certified, supporting customers’ green transformation goals across a wide range of industries.
