the responsible sourcing, proper collection and management of the ocean bound plastic waste. After collecting and sorting the ocean bound plas- tic waste, HHI uses chemical recycling to convert the waste into pyrolysis oil. The pyrolysis oil is then used by SABIC to create high-quality PP plastic gran- ulates. After SABIC, the plastic granulates are used in the process in which the film manufacturer Taghleef Industries produces the label film that is used to pro- duce the final label material by UPM Raflatac. The plastic waste used in the value chain of mak- ing Ocean Action label material is certified under the Zero Plastics Oceans program, and the final la- bel material under ISCC PLUS. The label material is produced using sustain- able recycled feedstock, replacing the equivalent amount of virgin fossil resources used in the pro- duction process, using a mass balance approach, accounting for the amount of sustainable resources. These verify that the Ocean Action label material is traceable and sustainably sourced.
