ERCA S.p.A., a leader in chemical innovation, exclusive manufacturer of REVECOL®, brand owned by ERCA Textile Chemical Solutions (ERCA TCS) an independent company within the same group, specialized in supplying chemical solutions for the textile industry is proud to announce its transition to ISCC PLUS certification (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification), confirming its ongoing commitment to bioeconomy and circular economy practices and certified innovation. This strategic decision comes in response to recent discussions within industry, including the potential shift by Textile Exchange toward certifying only fiber content — a move that no longer aligns with ERCA TCS’s integrated sustainability approach. The company has therefore moved to ISCC PLUS: a globally recognized certification system that ensures the traceability and transparency of bio-circular, bio-based, and recycled feedstocks across the value chain. The process began with REVECOL® by ERCA TCS at the production site of ERCA SPA. With our new ISCC PLUS certification, which now represents another milestone in the industry, we are strengthening ERCA TCS’s leading position in the field of certified bio-circular chemistry.
Certified auxiliaries for the textile industry
ERCA is proud to be the first and only company worldwide to certify under ISCC PLUS the
output category: “Auxiliaries for the textile industry – Vegetable Oil Ethoxylates, Alkylamide–Bio-Circular”. These products, especially developed for the REVECOL® brand are linked to upcycled raw materials such as biocircular Vegetable Cooking Oil (UCO), under the mass balance approach, represent decisive achievement in green chemistry.

With this step, ERCA S.p.A. and ERCA TCS once again demonstrate their pioneering role in the sector, offering innovative and certified products that anticipate the market's future needs.
ISCC Founded in 2010 through a multi-stakeholder initiative, the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) is a globally applicable and leading
certification system designed to enhance traceable, sustainable, deforestation-free, and climate-friendly supply chains. ISCC certifications are widely recognised and
cover sustainable agricultural biomass, biogenic wastes and residues, non-biological renewable materials and recycled carbon-based materials. The development and
implementation of different certification standards is ISCC’s tool to promote its mission to mitigate climate change and bring more traceability into global markets and
supply chains. The ISCC PLUS standard, in particular, supports the transition to a circular economy and bioeconomy. This voluntary certification standard validates the
sustainability characteristics of alternative feedstocks throughout the entire supply chain, from origin to end consumer. Discover more here
