ISCC PLUS and OEKO-TEX Certified rPET Resin. Made in India

Certified recycled content is becoming a procurement requirement, and the documentation bar is rising. Brand audits, EU-facing compliance frameworks, and internal sustainability targets are pushing buyers to look beyond a supplier's word and toward independently verified proof, at the raw material level, before the resin enters their process.

JB rPET Industries was built for exactly this requirement. Our chemically recycled PET resin, produced in Surat from post-consumer PET bottles, carries ISCC PLUS certification for supply chain traceability, OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification for harmful substance testing documentation.

Certifications That Hold Up Under Audit

A certificate on a supplier's website proves very little on its own. What matters to your procurement team is whether the certification is current, issued by an accredited body, and traceable to the specific material you are buying.

JB rPET Industries holds two active third-party certifications: ISCC PLUS and OEKO-TEX Standard 100. Each covers a specific layer of verification, from sustainability traceability to chemical safety to food contact compliance. Certificate numbers are available on request.

What ISCC PLUS Certification Means for Your Supply Chain

ISCC stands for International Sustainability and Carbon Certification. The PLUS variant covers circular and bio-based materials across global markets.

For recycled PET resin, ISCC PLUS certification verifies three things independently:

1. Origin of feedstock: The post-consumer PET bottles used as raw material are documented and traceable to their collection point. This is the beginning of the chain-of-custody record.
2. Process integrity: The depolymerization and repolymerization steps that convert bottle waste into C-rPET resin are audited. The certification covers each site in the supply chain separately, so a valid certificate is site-specific and cannot be transferred between facilition.
3. Sustainability claims: ISCC PLUS certification is commonly referenced in relation to recycled content, material traceability, and chain-of-custody documentation.

For buyers sourcing certified recycled PET resin for EU market supply chains or textile export markets, ISCC certification provides the audit-ready traceability documentation required at every checkpoint. ISCC PLUS certification verifies the entire chain of custody, from the bottle collection point to the resin pellet that arrives at your plant. It is renewed annually through independent audit.

How The Certifications Work Together

ISCC PLUS answers: Where did this material come from, and was the recycled content claim independently verified?

OEKO-TEX Standard 100 answers: Has this material been tested for harmful substances at concentrations that could affect human health or downstream product compliance?

These are separate questions, and they require separate verification frameworks. Suppliers holding only one of the two certifications leave a documentation gap. A company with strong traceability but no harmful substance testing record, or substance testing without verified sustainability provenance, presents a partial picture to procurement teams and their compliance auditors.

JB rPET Industries holds both, covering the supply chain transparency requirements relevant to EU-facing buyers and the chemical safety documentation relevant to textile processors at any stage of the value chain.

Chemically Recycled PET Resin: Technical Profile

JB rPET Industries produces C-rPET resin through chemical recycling, specifically depolymerization of post-consumer PET bottles followed by repolymerization to resin grade. This distinguishes our output from mechanically recycled PET in one measurable way: the polymer chain is rebuilt, carrying forward a consistent intrinsic viscosity and colour profile that mechanical processing cannot guarantee across variable feedstock quality.

The resin is available in textile grade, suitable for direct use in polyester staple fibre (PSF) and filament yarn production.

Certified Supply Without the Import Lead Time

JB rPET Industries operates in Surat, Gujarat, serving spinning mills, packaging converters, and filament producers across western and southern India. For buyers whose customers require ISCC PLUS or OEKO-TEX Standard 100 documentation on input materials, we are currently one of the few certified chemical recycling producers in India able to supply both certificates against domestic volumes.

This matters specifically for Indian textile exporters supplying European fast fashion or mid-market brands, where recycled content claims and sustainability documentation are verified at the raw material level, well before the finished garment.

Questions Procurement Teams Ask About Certified rPET

Q: What does ISCC PLUS certification mean for chemically recycled PET resin?

A: ISCC PLUS is an internationally recognised third-party certification that verifies the origin and traceability of recycled materials across the supply chain. For C-rPET resin, it confirms that the feedstock is documented post-consumer PET, that the recycling process meets defined sustainability criteria, and that the certified recycled content percentage declared on shipping documents has been independently verified by an auditor. The certificate is site-specific and renewed each year.

Q: Is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 applicable to raw materials like PET resin?

A: Yes. OEKO-TEX Standard 100 applies at every stage of the textile supply chain, including raw materials and intermediates. Certification of rPET resin under Standard 100 means the material has been tested against over 1,000 substances, including legally regulated chemicals and additional substances known to pose health risks. This test record can be referenced by downstream processors to support their own Standard 100 certification without duplicate substance testing.

Q: What does "confidence in textiles" mean in the context of OEKO-TEX Standard 100?

A: "Confidence in Textiles" is the official tagline of OEKO-TEX Standard 100, summarising its purpose: buyers can process or sell OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified materials with confidence that harmful substance content has been tested and verified to defined limits. For a B2B buyer sourcing recycled PET resin, this means the material test record is part of the documentation handed over with the batch, reducing the compliance burden at each downstream processing stage.
