Certification Renewal

In 2025, Cray Valley's Carling facility in France successfully renewed its ISCC PLUS certification. This marks a significant step in their ongoing commitment to sustainability, following the initial certification in 2022.

Certified Products

The facility produces ISCC PLUS-certified liquid polybutadiene grades and pure monomer tackifying resins, including Cleartack®, Ricon®, and Krasol®. These products are manufactured using a mass balance approach at TotalEnergies' site in Carling, France.

Bio-feedstock Source

The bio-feedstock used in production originates from vegetable oil or used cooking oil, processed at TotalEnergies' biorefinery in La Mède, France. This approach supports the increase of renewable materials in customer formulations while maintaining high performance standards.

Future Goals

Cray Valley aims to supply more than 30% of its total volume as sustainable resins by 2030, accelerating the transition to low-carbon and environmentally responsible products.
