Uni-Fuels gets ISCC certifications to accelerate sustainable marine fuel trading

Singapore-based provider of marine fuel solutions Uni-Fuels has received both ISCC EU and ISCC PLUS certifications from the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC), an independent multi-stakeholder initiative and certification system supporting sustainable, fully traceable, deforestation-free and climate-friendly supply chains.

As explained, the certifications highlight the company’s commitment to sustainability and compliance with European Union (EU) regulations aimed at reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the maritime industry.

Specifically, the ISCC certifications ensure that the biofuels traded by Uni-Fuels Singapore meet the requirements of the EU’s Renewable Energy Directive (RED II), including the provision of Proof of Sustainability (PoS). This documentation ensures biofuels are sustainably sourced and produced, enabling full traceability from feedstock to the final product.

As the maritime sector moves toward greater decarbonization, biofuel suppliers need to demonstrate compliance with regulatory standards, including the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) and FuelEU Maritime.

PoS documentation ensures biofuels can be counted toward emissions reduction targets, as opposed to being treated as fossil fuels.

“Achieving ISCC certifications demonstrates our commitment to supporting the global transition to cleaner fuels. With
