Evonik’s two new production facilities for cosmetics ingredients in Shanghai (China) and Americana (Brazil) were recently certified in accordance with the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) standard.

“This creates an important prerequisite for offering additional certified products to our customers,” said Dr Tammo Boinowitz, the head of the Personal Care Business Line at Evonik. As a member of the RSPO, Evonik advocates the use of sustainably produced palm oil in the supply chain. “We strive to use the largest possible share of RSPO certified fatty acids and fatty alcohols from palm oil in our products for cosmetics, detergents and cleaning agents,” said Boinowitz. Evonik has introduced a corresponding supply chain system for this purpose.

The first production sites in Essen and Steinau became RSPO certified in late 2013, followed by the sites in Shanghai and Americana in the spring of 2015. Certification of additional Evonik production sites is planned in the near future.
