All UPM BioVerno products are certified

Our liquid biofuels have been extensively certified under both the international ISCC EU and ISCC PLUS sustainability certification schemes as well as various national verifications, such as the Finnish national sustainability system. All our products satisfy the sustainability and traceability criteria of the EU Renewable Energy Directive (RED II). In addition, the ISCC EU and ISCC PLUS voluntary schemes have included social responsibility criteria as a part of their standards. UPM participates actively in the stakeholder meetings, working groups and standard development of both ISCC and RSB.

All our products are registered under REACH

The EU's chemicals legislation is based on a regulation concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH). It aims to promote sustainable development by improving the protection of health and the environment.

UPM has fulfilled all the requirements of the REACH regulation and sees it as a positive measure in harmonising chemical legislation within the EU. As mainly an end user of chemicals, we have ensured that all our chemical suppliers are aware of the REACH requirements. UPM Biofuels has registered all its products and raw materials under the regulation.
