Many types of organizations, from nations to non-profits to businesses, are playing a role in achieving these goals. The plastics industry is well positioned to make a positive impact on SDGs, particularly those related to climate action and protection of land and water. Organizations across the plastics value chain are taking decisive action, both individually and in partnership, to address concerns about the use of non-renewable fossil-based materials, about carbon emissions and energy consumption from plastic manufacturing and part processing, and about the proliferation of plastic waste, especially in the oceans.<\/p>\n<p>Here is how SABIC, through its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sabic.com\/en\/products\/specialties\">Specialties business<\/a>, is contributing to three SDGs by deploying a broad strategy focused on circularity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SDG #13: Climate Action<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mirroring the broad scope of this category are the many types of specialty thermoplastic resins, compounds and additives available today and in development. These diverse materials can help address complex thermal, mechanical, optical, and electrical performance requirements for many different climate resilience aspects.<\/p>\n<p>These can range from replacement of virgin resins with recycled and renewable materials, to reduction of carbon emissions in several industries, from personal care, electronics to transportation and energy storage.<\/p>\n<p>SABIC is focusing on:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Developing new bio-based thermoplastics to help reduce the use of fossil-based raw materials.<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sabic.com\/en\/products\/specialties\/lnp-compounds\">SABIC\u2019s LNP\u2122 portfolio<\/a> contains more than 60 grades using second-generation feedstocks, such as hydrotreated vegetable oils, which do not directly compete with the food chain. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?app=desktop&amp;v=-imvDD6i6Lo\">These bio-based materials<\/a> carry the International Sustainability &amp; Carbon Certification (ISCC+) and can contribute up to 61% of CO2 reduction while offering virgin quality &amp; consistency, and can qualify for REACH<a href=\"#_ftn1\" name=\"_ftnref1\">[1]<\/a> and ROHS<a href=\"#_ftn2\" name=\"_ftnref2\">[2]<\/a> SABIC plans to expand its bio-based certified renewable offerings with ULTEM\u2122 resins this year.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Encouraging mechanical and chemical recycling by incorporating post-consumer plastic waste in novel materials.<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sabic.com\/en\/products\/documents\/lnp-solutions-for-circular-economy-teaser\/en\">SABIC\u2019s LNP\u2122 compounds<\/a> containing up to 80% of post-consumer recycled (PCR) content can reduce their carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2<\/sub>) footprint by almost one half.

The following are examples of partners that a materials supplier can work with to increase its contribution to climate action and other SDGs.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Recyclers<\/strong>: Plastics suppliers can work with recyclers to improve the consistency and quality of the recycled feedstocks offered to end customers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Molders:<\/strong> Plastics suppliers can provide expertise with material selection, tooling design optimization and process parameters that promote the use of bio based and recycled or upcycled resins in end-use applications. Suppliers can also share performance data on their materials to demonstrate suitability for specific applications.<\/li>\n<li><strong>End customers:<\/strong> Plastics suppliers can work with brand owners to identify more-sustainable alternatives to traditional materials, designs and processes that appeal to environmentally conscious consumers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Third parties:<\/strong> Plastic manufacturers should endeavor to use independent third parties to quantify the environmental contributions of their plastics. As an example, the International Sustainability &amp; Carbon Certification (ISCC) is a certification system that covers all sustainable feedstocks, including agricultural and forestry biomass, circular and bio-based materials and renewables<a href=\"#_ftn4\" name=\"_ftnref4\">[4]<\/a>.
