Nouryon has obtained ISCC Plus certification for green ethylene oxide, ethanolamines, ethylene amines, and the surfactants derived from these raw materials at its site in Stenungsund, Sweden.

Ethylene oxide, ethanolamines, and ethylene amines are key building blocks in the production of surfactants used in applications including personal care.

Nouryon’s green ethylene oxide, ethanolamines, and ethylene amines are sustainable alternatives that contribute to significant product carbon footprint reduction while delivering the same high quality and performance.

“We are pleased to serve our customers by supplying green ethanolamines and ethylene amines based on sustainably sourced raw materials to contribute to lowering our customers’ product carbon footprint,” said Sirpa Engman, Vice President of Intermediates at Nouryon.

“This announcement, in addition to our recent launch of green monochloroacetic acid (MCA), demonstrates our continued dedication to delivering sustainable solutions for our customers,” she added.

Nouryon is also a leading global monochloroacetic acid (MCA) supplier, having become the first to produce and achieve ISCC Plus certification for green MCA, derived from sustainably sourced raw materials at its site in Delfzijl, the Netherlands.
