Under the RSB/SCS certification system, participating operators meeting international standards of biofuel production can be certified as “sustainable,” thereby permitting the Operator’s use of the RSB endorsement and logo in the marketplace subject to regular RSB/SCS oversight. SCS deploys interdisciplinary teams of natural resource specialists and other experts all over the world to conduct evaluations of biofuel operations. SCS evaluation teams collect and analyze written materials, conduct interviews with Participating Operator’s staff and key stakeholders, and complete field and office audits of the operation(s) identified in the certification scope. Upon completion of the fact-finding phase of all evaluations, SCS teams determine compliance to the RSB Principles and Criteria. Please Note: An RSB certificate itself does not constitute evidence that a particular product supplied by the certificate holder is certified to RSB standards. Products offered, shipped or sold by the certificate holder can only be considered covered by the scope of this certificate when the required RSB claim is clearly stated on-product. For more information about the RSB, visit their website at www.rsb.org. Organization of the Report This report of the results of our evaluation is divided into two sections. Section A provides the public summary and background information that is required by the Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials. This section is made available to the general public and is intended to provide an overview of the evaluation process, the management programs, and policies applied to the Participating Operator, and the results of the evaluation. Section A will be posted on the RSB Participating Operators Database (http://rsb.org/certification/participating-operators/). Section B contains more detailed results and information for use by the Participating Operator.

    PRESS RELEASE Agreement number EU LIFE19 ENV/DE/000652 Frankfurt, June 16, 2021 EU LIFE PROJECT ABSOLUTELY CIRCULAR: INDAVER AND INEOS STYROLUTION ANNOUNCE PRODUCTION OF FIRST ABS WITH RECYCLED STYRENE • Successful proof of concept for production of ABS from recycled feedstock • Up to 30% reduction in greenhouse gas footprint • The ABSolutely Circular project paves the way for a more sustainable production of ABS benefiting from advanced recycling technologies Indaver, a leader in sustainable waste management and INEOS Styrolution, global leader in styrenics, announced today the first production of “ABrS”, i.e. ABS1 with the styrene component based on recycled feedstock. The production of ABrS is a significant milestone in the project, funded by the EU LIFE programme, the European Union’s funding instrument for the environment and resource efficiency. 1 ABS: Acylonitrile Butadiene Styrene INEOS Styrolution Group GmbH, Mainzer Landstraße 50, 60325 Frankfurt am Main, Germany [email protected], www.ineos-styrolution.com The first 10 kilogrammes of ABrS were produced at the INEOS Styrolution laboratory in Cologne, Germany. The material was subsequently processed at INEOS Styrolution’s R&D partner Neue Materialien Bayreuth GmbH. Initial testing of the material at the INEOS Styrolution laboratory in Cologne, Germany, did not show any measurable differences to native material. Production of ABrS offers up to 30% lower greenhouse gas footprint compared to production of native ABS. Petra Inghelbrecht, project leader for the ABSolutely Circular research project, comments: “The first production of ABrS at lab scale is a successful proof of concept. With the upcoming construction of a polystyrene recycling plant and an ABrS mini-plant in Antwerp becoming operational, we will be able to make another significant step forward towards production of ABS from recycled feedstock at commercial scale.” For more information on the project, see related press releases2 or visit https://absolutely-circular.com.

The ratings also take into account the established position of the promoter group of SIL in the styrene based polymers globally, its state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, established arrangement for procurement of key raw materials, comfortable leverage and strong debt protection as well as liquidity indicators. However, the above rating strengths are constrained by SIL’s moderate profitability, susceptibility of its profitability to volatile raw material prices which are derivatives of crude oil, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations associated with imported raw materials, low profit margin of polystyrene business and threat of imports from South East-Asian countries. SIL’s ability to timely execute planned expansion and generate envisaged benefits thereof, improve its profitability in the light of volatility in its raw material prices and foreign exchange rate fluctuations while managing working capital requirements and maintaining its comfortable leverage shall be the key rating sensitivities.
