Resonac Receives ISCC PLUS Certification for its Oita Ethylene Complex Resonac Corporation’s Oita Complex has acquired ISCC PLUS certification, one of the international certification systems for sustainable products.

This acquisition of ISCC PLUS certification enables Resonac to allocate properties of sustainability derived from biomass materials to derivative products made partially from bio-based hydrocarbons under the mass balance method based on the certification system and sell these derivative products. The date to start sale of these derivative products will be decided after consultation with our business acquaintances.

Construct Recycling-oriented Society


Resonac’s Oita Complex has been using materials derived from petroleum as materials for ethylene plant in the past. However, Oita Complex now considers partially substituting biomass materials for materials derived from petroleum.

Resonac’s aim of grappling with this issue is to put sustainable materials to practical use and construct a recycling-oriented society which leads to carbon neutrality.

Products that can be deployed with ISCC PLUS certification

  • ethylene
  • propylene
  • crude C4 (NBB/TBB)
  • C5 distillate
  • cracked gasoline
  • cracked kerosene
  • cracked heavy oil
  • gases (hydrogen, methane, ethane, RG, C3LPG)
  • vinyl acetate

Resonac also plans to acquire ISCC PLUS certification for products of olefins & derivatives business unit/oita complex other than those mentioned above.

Oita Complex of Resonac Corporation promises and declares that it will comply with ISCC PLUS requirements provided by the latest ISCC regulations.
