We’re proud to announce that Phibro RenewOil is now officially ISCC EU certified under the revised Renewable Energy Directive (RED III). This important certification reflects our deep commitment to sustainability, traceability, and regulatory compliance on a global scale — and it positions us to support even more partners in the growing bioeconomy.


If you’re a restaurant, foodservice provider, or commercial kitchen recycling used cooking oil (UCO) with us, this certification means your waste stream is now part of an internationally recognized, sustainable supply chain.

What Is ISCC EU Certification?

ISCC (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification) is a globally applied, third-party system for verifying the sustainability of materials used in the bioenergy and biofuel sectors.

The ISCC EU certification is specifically aligned with the European Union’s Renewable Energy Directive (RED III), which sets strict criteria for renewable fuels and materials to ensure they’re:


  • Traceable

  • Environmentally sustainable

  • Legally compliant

  • Efficient in reducing greenhouse gas emissions




What Was Phibro RenewOil Certified For?

As of June 13, 2025, Phibro RenewOil has been certified by SCS Global Services as an ISCC EU-compliant Collecting Point and Trader with Storage. This means we are officially recognized as:


  • A trusted collector of used cooking oil (entirely of vegetable origin)

  • A certified handler of sustainable materials in accordance with the latest RED III directive

  • A participant in the global renewable fuel supply chain


Certificate Number: EU-ISCC-Cert-US201-219322025

Location: Bridgeport, Connecticut

Valid through: June 12, 2026



Why This Matters to Our Customers

If your kitchen works with Phibro RenewOil, your used cooking oil isn’t just being responsibly collected — it’s being processed in a way that contributes to certified sustainable energy production.

With our ISCC EU status:

  • You can demonstrate compliance with sustainability goals

  • Your recycled oil contributes to EU-compliant renewable fuel markets

  • You support traceable and verified carbon savings

  • You strengthen your own ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) credentials


This certification is especially valuable for institutional kitchens, food manufacturers, and partners in regulated industries that require full transparency in their waste streams.



From Waste to Clean Fuel: The Bigger Picture

Used cooking oil, when properly collected and recycled, can be transformed into biodiesel and renewable diesel — low-carbon alternatives to fossil fuels. Through the ISCC-certified supply chain, that transformation is now internationally validated.


Phibro RenewOil’s role as a Collecting Point means we’re one of the first links in that sustainable chain. We help ensure that what comes out of your fryer doesn’t go to waste — it goes to work reducing greenhouse gas emissions.



Looking Ahead

This certification is just the beginning. As regulations tighten and demand for renewable energy grows, ISCC compliance will become even more important. Phibro RenewOil is proud to be ahead of the curve, offering our partners the assurance that their oil is:


  • Handled safely

  • Recycled responsibly

  • Certified sustainable


We’ll continue to invest in technology, partnerships, and best practices that make grease recycling smarter, cleaner, and more impactful.
