RSB Certification 

INEOS Inovyn is delighted to extend its certification from The Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB) to include the production of BIOVYN from our Tavaux site in France.

BIOVYN is a unique range of PVC that is produced with 100% substitution of fossil feedstock by biomass, enabling a greenhouse gas saving of over 90% compared to conventional S-PVC.

After a successful launch and certification of BIOVYN as a world-first from our Rheinberg site in Germany in October 2019, and further certification extensions to cover our Jemeppe site in Belgium in 2020, and our two Nordics sites in Porsgrunn, Norway and Stenungsund, Sweden in 2021, INOVYN now further extends its RSB certification to BIOVYN production at its French site, thereby offering an even wider range of sustainably produced PVC grades.
