87 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2021 In 2021, three manufacturing sites (two Fibers and one PET) successfully achieved the International Sustainability Carbon Certification Plus (ISCC Plus) Certification. PT. Indorama Polypet Indonesia (PTIPPI) was IVL’s first PET entity to receive the ISCC Plus certification for its efforts inBio-PET. Additionally, the FiberVisions’ Varde site in Denmark, a polypropylene fiber producer, and AVGOL’s Uzlovaya site in Russia, a spunlaid nonwovens producer, satisfied audits related to traceability and the reasonable use of biomaterials. ISCC Plus certifies bio-based and circular (recycled) raw materials for all markets and sectors not regulated as transportation fuels under the European Renewable Energy Directive (EURED) or Fuel Quality Directive (FQD), which are covered under the ISSC EU certification scheme. ISCC Plus ensures compliance with globally recognized sustainability requirements and voluntary greenhouse gas emission reductions throughout its supply chain. ANTIMONY-FREE FLAME RETARDANT STAPLE FIBERS Trevira CS® ranks top in importance among IVL’s functional fibers as it is the world’s leading flameretardant fiber made with Trevira’s antimony-free technology. Another impor tant element of our sustainability policy is the manufacture of staple fibers without using antimony.We began to produce our staple fibers from normal polyester on an antimony-free basis as long ago as January 2018, and antimony-freeflame retardant staple fibers will be offered by Trevira as a standard from the second half of 2019. ICARE™ HEAVY METAL-FREE PET FIBERS In response to customers’ concerns over the possible inclusion of Substances of Interest (SOI) in fiber-based intimate hygiene products, IVL has developed a heavy metal-free PET fiber. iCare™ heavy metal free polymer complies with the food additive provisions of the U.S. Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
