With renewable-based raw materials, such as used cooking oil, as a feedstock, CirculenRenew polymers offer a variety of polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (HDPE and LDPE) grades that are equivalent to virgin resin quality while reducing fossil feedstock use and helping to reduce CO2 over the product life cycle. These renewable-based polymers offer the same properties in terms of product performance as well as regulatory approvals. CirculenRenew and CirculenRenew products with measured and certified C14 content (or grades) can therefore be applied, with no restrictions, to the same applications as fossil-based equivalents offering the same properties and performance. This makes these new grades a perfect drop-in solution for applications like food packaging and/or high-quality requirement films such as surface protection films.

CirculenRenew products are sold by issuing mass-balance based Sustainability Declaration Certificates. A third-party certification process provides traceability along the supply chain and verifies that the mass balance accounting aligns to predefined and transparent rules

CirculenRenew products with measured and certified C14 content products have a measurable renewable-based content which can be determined by C14 analysis. The renewable-based content is measured and stated as a parameter on the Certificate of Analysis (CoA)

LyondellBasell has select crackers and polymer manufacturing sites in the United States and Europe that are ISCC PLUS certified. A Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) was conducted on the greenhouse gas (GHG) claim of CirculenRenew polymers from Europe
