Our Logos and Claims
We offer a trusted and transparent supply chain certification system and licensing scheme, allowing companies to demonstrate their commitment to sourcing more alternative feedstocks. We help you clarify whether getting certified or obtaining a licence suits your needs best here.
Are you now looking to credibly communicate your use of alternative materials using the ISCC logos and claims? Let us introduce you to the different types of ISCC logos, how they can be used and the steps you need to take to apply them. Whether you want to use our logos and claims directly on your products or in marketing materials, we’ll ensure your communication is credible, compliant and clear.
Understanding our Logos
On-Product Logos
Our on-product logos and accompanying claims include:
- The raw material category. Depending on the feedstock used, the magnifying glass will show either circulating arrows (circular material), circulating leaves (bio-circular material) or a seedling (bio material).
- The amount of the certified share.
- The chosen chain-of-custody option.
- The certified product component.
Corporate Logo
Our corporate logo can be used by ISCC System Users holding a valid certificate, valid licensees, members of the ISCC Association and Certification Bodies. It may be used for all off-product applications, e.g. on marketing materials, websites, sustainability reports, sustainability declarations, and corporate materials, but never on products.
Seals
Our seals can only be used by Certification Bodies on ISCC certificates and by ISCC itself. The seals are not allowed to be used anywhere or by anyone else.
Adding Value to your Business
Using the ISCC logo for your external communications strengthens your company’s reputation for sustainability. Credible communication of your sustainability efforts is key – third-party certification can help you build credibility and trust in your business relationships.
