NatureWorks宣布了一项新计划，该计划将确保到2020年，INGEO™生物聚合物的农业原料中的100％和Vercet™性能化学品将获得国际可持续性和碳认证系统（ISCC）的认证。在农业生产中。
NatureWorks是2012年获得新ISCC Plus Standard认证的第一家生物聚合物制造商，目前已拥有其农业原料的40％以上。到2020年，该计划将全部负责90多个农场。
农业原料的可持续采购
ISCC Plus认证的农作物的种植在Naturalworks的Blair，内布拉斯加州的50英里内，生产设施的生产能力为150,000公吨Ingeo Biopolymer。每个进入该计划的农场都接受遵守ISCC Plus认证原则的培训，这是以下内容：
- 保护高度生物多样性和高碳库存区域
- Implement best agricultural practices for the use of fertilizers and pesticides, irrigation, tillage, soil management, and the protection of the surrounding environment.
- 促进安全的工作条件。
- Comply with human, labor, and land rights.
- Comply with laws and international treaties.
- Implement good management practices and continuous improvement.
Rich Altice, CEO and President of NatureWorks said:“New materials innovation is being driven by the tenants of the circular bioeconomy, and as we seek to decouple plastics from fossil feedstocks, we remain committed to feedstock diversification and to critically assessing the sustainability of each and every feedstock we use,”
Gernot Klepper, Chairman of the ISCC Association said:“We are very happy about NatureWorks’ commitment to sourcing sustainable agricultural feedstock. Agricultural producers have both a responsibility and a tremendous chance to contribute to meeting the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. Certification with ISCC PLUS enables farmers to move toward more sustainable agricultural practices, thus supporting ecologic and social, as well as economic sustainability in agriculture and rural areas.”
New Plastics Economy Global Commitment
作为自然工厂对可再生，可持续原料和材料的承诺的一部分，艾伦·麦克阿瑟基金会（Ellen MacArthur Foundation）最近宣布，自然工厂与其亚博网站下载他全球烙布和制造商一起签署了新的塑料经济全球承诺。作为签署人，自然工人致力于支持以下情况，以支持可持续的生物塑料农业：
- By 2019, 60% of the company’s feedstock will be certified as sustainably and responsibly managed via ISCC PLUS.
- By 2020, 100% of feedstock will be certified as sustainably and responsibly managed via ISCC PLUS.
- 到2025年，通过独立的第三方管理计划，将100％的新原料用于额外的制造能力，并通过独立的第三方管理计划进行认证。
ISCC Plus是在多方利益相关者计划中开发的独立第三方可持续性认证系统。综合计划证明了用于生物基于生物产品的农业原料的可持续性，包括农业生产的环境和社会方面。特定地点审核和证书确保供应链沿供应链的完全可追溯性和保管链，以确保可以将产品的最终用户收到的INGEO总量可以追溯到（并通过质量平衡系统记录）到等效量经过认证的可持续作物生产。ISCC认证已被全球品牌采用，并得到非政府组织的支持。
