Sustainable Organic Chlorine Derivatives

INEOS Inovyn is committed to play a leading role in the transition to a sustainable economy. Continuing with the development of sustainable products, we launched REODRINTM, the world’s first bio-attributed epichlorohydrin, in 2021.

REODRINTM exemplifies our ongoing commitment to accelerate the circular economy and deliver a Net Zero Europe by 2050.

 

REODRINTM is a sustainable form of epichlorohydrin, produced using certified renewable materials based on a mass balance approach.

It enables greenhouse gas saving of almost 70% compared to fossil-based epichlorohydrin, and it is manufactured from 100% bio-circular, second generation glycerine.

In October 2022, REODRINTM obtained ISCC PLUS certification, expanding deployment of the bio-attribution concept along our value chain and making it easier for customers to take advantage of the lower greenhouse gas benefits from this material.

REODRINTM represents an unrivalled combination of quality, performance and sustainability.

 

Significant benefits

Bio-attributed epichlorohydrin generates significant additional sustainability benefits over conventional epichlorohydrin:

  • 100% renewable feedstock not competing with the food chain.
  • 100% replacement of fossil with non-fossil.
  • Greenhouse gas savings of up to 70% compared to fossil-based epichlorohydrin.
  • Fully certified by International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC PLUS).



REODRINTM also retains the exact same product characteristics as conventional epichlorohydrin:

  • Drop-in product that do not require any changes to your production processes or end product.
  • Consumers will enjoy the same product quality and performance with strong sustainability credentials.
