Bio-Attributed PVC
GROWING SUSTAINABLY TOGETHER
A new sustainable generation
of PVC tiers
CIRES remains focused on contributing to a better world, investing in the development of technology to reduce the environmental impact of the manufacturing process. As part of this work, the launch of the new LiteVin brand VICIR® – A new sustainable generation of polyvinyl chloride suspension (S-PVC) and emulsion (E-PVC) grades – represents a significant contribution to decarbonization and one more step towards the circular economy.
LiteVin VICIR® represents a new range of PVC with bio-circular attribution and certified according to the International System of Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC PLUS), using the mass balance approach. Thus, these products have the same composition/CAS number as conventionally produced PVC and behave in the same way during processing.
By using a plant-based, circular feedstock with a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) when compared to fossil fuel sources, LiteVin VICIR® Polymers enable our customers to bring products to market with a lower carbon footprint. . Depending on the type of PVC (S-PVC or E-PVC), the estimated GWP reduction can exceed 70%, which represents a significant achievement of our long-term sustainability commitment.
Focusing on our customers lies our motivation to manufacture more sustainable and environmentally friendly products.
CIRES is very committed to supporting and building solutions for upcoming decarbonization projects.

Mass balance allocation reduces the use of fossil-based raw materials conventionally used in PVC production and allows our customers to supply the market with products with a lower carbon footprint.
MASS BALANCE CERTIFICATION
We selected the ISCC PLUS system to certify our bio-circular PVC gratings according to a mass balance attribution approach. ISCC is a globally applicable sustainability certification system that covers all sustainable feedstocks, including agricultural biomass and forestry, circular and renewable materials.
The ISCC certification scheme requires strict traceability with a chain of custody based on a mass balance assignment that is verified by independent auditors.
