LYB collaborates with Armando Alvarez Group to implement bio-circular solutions

The Wesseling site is using Form-Fill-Seal (FFS) bags with attributed bio-circular content, certified under ISCC+ standards. The two companies bring together material expertise and packaging knowledge to support more sustainable industrial packaging applications. This approach shows how sustainability can be embedded into operational processes while also meeting performance and safety expectations.

How it works:

  • LYB supplies CirculenRenew polymers sourced from bio-circular feedstock to AAG.
  • AAG then produces Form-Fill-Seal (FFS) bags with up to 96% attributed bio-circular content, applying an ISCC+ certified mass balance approach.
  • Those bags are then utilised at the Wesseling site to package and deliver select materials to customers.

Benefits of this approach include:

  • Progress toward lower carbon outcomes, with CirculenRenew polymers offering up to 44% lower product carbon footprint (PCF) on a cradle‑to‑gate basis compared to fossil‑based alternatives.
  • Traceability through third-party ISCC+ certification.
  • Enhanced learning across teams and partners.
