Our commitment to the environment

At Trocellen, shaping a sustainable future is more than an ambition — it’s our promise.
We recognize that preserving the global environment is one of the most pressing challenges of our time. As a leading specialist in polymer-based solutions, we strive every day to develop innovative, responsible products that balance human needs with ecological harmony.

Our mission is clear:

  • To reduce our environmental impact,
  • To enable circularity across industries,
  • And to support global efforts to combat climate change — all through cutting-edge material technologies.

Foundations of our sustainable approach

Across all industries we serve, our solutions are built on the same principles:

  • Lightweight: Using less material, lowering transport emissions.
  • High quality & consistent performance: Ensuring products last longer and function reliably.
  • Simplicity: Easy integration into diverse applications, and easier to recycle.
  • Long lifespan: Minimizing waste by extending use.

Through these pillars, Trocellen products enhance comfort and safety, while also actively contributing to the protection of our environment.

Sustainability in action

Ecodesign at the core

Sustainability doesn’t stop at manufacturing. That’s why we embed Ecodesign principles into our entire product development process.

  • We analyze products across their full life cycle (LCA) — from raw material extraction, through production and transport, to end-of-life.
  • This allows us to identify and minimize environmental impacts at every stage.
  • By 2025, our goal is that all new Trocellen products are ecodesigned, blending best performance with the lowest possible ecological footprint.

NATURELOOP

Building a circular future

Our NATURELOOP portfolio represents Trocellen’s comprehensive drive toward sustainability.

  • Designed to minimize environmental impacts while maintaining lightweight, durable, high-performing solutions.
  • Anchored in rigorous LCA studies and ecodesign thinking, NATURELOOP aims to close material loops — supporting both your needs and the planet’s.

Sustainable Materials

REcy-PE:

recycled polyethylene for a lower carbon footprint

The Trocellen REcy-PE solution integrates recycled polyethylene into our foams:

  • Up to 30% chemically recycled PE and 20% mechanically recycled PE.
  • Each kg of fossil LDPE replaced by chemically recycled LDPE cuts emissions by up to 0.86 kg CO₂-eq.
  • Contributes to lower energy use, diverts waste from landfills and incineration, and helps meet tightening regulatory demands.

Our REcy-PE foams are evaluated and certified under EN ISO 14021, and we also provide transparent lifecycle impact analyses to support your sustainability reporting.

TR-EEcell:

bio-based solutions with full transparency

TR-EEcell is Trocellen’s bio-based foam line, using raw materials derived from renewable biomass such as second-generation sugarcane waste:

  • Avoids competition with food resources.
  • Helps reduce fossil resource dependence and capture CO₂ during plant growth.
  • Certified by ISCC PLUS and DIN CERTCO, ensuring sustainable sourcing and clear documentation of bio-content.

From production to end-of-life, TR-EEcell supports a measurable reduction in carbon footprints — all while maintaining the same look, feel and reliability as conventional polymer foams.

Certified & verified for trust

Transparent supply chains & independent audits

Trocellen ensures that both our products and raw material sourcing stand up to the highest scrutiny:

  • ISCC PLUS certification guarantees traceability and responsible management of bio-based and recycled feedstocks throughout our supply chain.
  • Our facilities are regularly audited by independent certification bodies.
  • We also utilize the mass balance approach, widely recognized in the chemical industry, to secure consistent quality while accurately tracking sustainable content.
