We provide a robust sustainability certification for textiles linked to alternative feedstocks. This includes fibers and raw materials used in today’s fashion that originate from agriculture, forestry or recycled fossil-based resources.
By supporting responsible sourcing and efficient end-of-life recycling, ISCC certification helps reduce environmental impact and drive more climate-friendly textile supply chains.
All materials and products linked to recycled or sustainably grown feedstocks can become ISCC PLUS-certified. Feedstocks can be handled as physically segregated or mixed with conventional feedstocks via controlled blending or mass balance.
ISCC PLUS certification supports the sustainable production of agricultural materials. Our principles go beyond legal requirements, driving real improvements in environmental, social, and economic performance.
