ASC Obtains ISCC PLUS Certification for Sustainable Products
Jakarta, Indonesia – July 2025 – PT Asahimas Chemical (ASC), a member of the AGC Group, has recently obtained ISCC PLUS Certification*, one of the international certification systems for sustainable products. This certification confirms that biomass-derived raw materials and renewable raw materials (including those derived from renewable energy) are managed sustainably throughout the entire supply chain, including the manufacturing process, in accordance with ISCC standards, and that the traceability is ensured.
This certification enables ASC to handle ISCC PLUS-certified products such as Caustic Soda, Vinyl Chloride Monomer (VCM), and Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), thereby strengthening its product portfolio. Building on our use of Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) that issued by the Indonesia’s state-owned electricity Company (PLN) and in line with our ongoing commitment to sustainability, ASC will also be able to provide products that meet international standards for customers who are actively promoting sustainability.
Under its long-term management strategy "Vision 2030", the AGC Group has set "Sustainability Management" as one of its key strategies. By providing these certified products, the Group will promote initiatives that reduce environmental impact throughout the entire value chain - from the procurement of raw materials to customer use - thereby contributing to the realization of a sustainable global environment.
