This achievement demonstrates �����ֵͶע’s commitment to advance its sustainability goals and build capabilities to offer Tyvek^® products made with sustainable raw materials globally.

Completing the ISCC PLUS certification of global Tyvek^® product capabilities marks a key milestone in advancing the company’s acting on climate and enabling a circular economy sustainability goals. ISCC PLUS certification enables the verification of a product’s sustainability based on the entire supply chain, from sourcing raw materials to production and distribution, using the mass balance approach, in a manner that is robust, transparent and reliable.

One of the key aspects of ISCC PLUS certification is that it helps enable the reduction of carbon footprint of products and the gradual replacement of fossil fuel based raw materials with more sustainable alternatives while promoting the transition to a more circular economy.

“T�ⱹ���^® products help protect and improve the lives of millions in the end markets we serve – including healthcare packaging, personal protection, construction, and many other consumer and industrial applications. Our global integration of ISCC PLUS certification in the production of Tyvek^® aligns with our dedication to empower our customers on their journey towards net zero emissions. We continue to increase our innovation handprint while minimizing our environmental footprint for generations to come – this is what we strive for every day,” said David Domnisch, Vice President and General Manager, �����ֵͶע™ Tyvek^® and Typar^®.

Achieving ISCC certification builds on �����ֵͶע’s progress reported in the company’s 2024 Sustainability Report, including a 58 percent reduction of Scope 1 and 2 emissions from the 2019 baseline, surpassing �����ֵͶע’s 2030 goal and outperforming the expectations of the Paris Accord 1.5°C ambition. Since 2022, Tyvek^® has been produced with renewable electricity, through the purchase of renewable energy credits (RECs) and Guarantees of Origin (GOs) to match the energy consumed in �����ֵͶע’s operations annually. Additionally, �����ֵͶע achieved a 39 percent reduction of Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services and end of life of sold products from the 2020 baseline, surpassing our goal of a 25 percent reduction. ISCC PLUS certification in the production of Tyvek^® at the Spruance manufacturing facility advances �����ֵͶע’s strategy of further reducing Scope 3 emissions and working with global supply chains on a more circular economy.
