Company to introduce its first-ever ISCC PLUS
certified black masterbatch products powered by EVOLVE® Sustainable
Solutions
Cabot Corporation (NYSE: CBT) today announced the launch of its
new REPLASBLAK™ product family of circular black masterbatches with
certified material. With this launch, Cabot has introduced three
products which will be sold as the company’s first-ever
International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC PLUS)
certified black masterbatch products powered by EVOLVE® Sustainable
Solutions. Cabot’s recently launched EVOLVE® Sustainable Solutions
technology platform is designed to deliver products that offer
sustainable content with reliable performance at industrial scale.
The REPLASBLAK circular black masterbatches powered by EVOLVE
Sustainable Solutions will enable Cabot to deliver the reliable
performance, quality and consistency that the plastics industry
requires at scale for certified solutions.
Increased environmental pressures are driving greater demand for
black masterbatch solutions that support a circular, sustainable
economy as well as decrease greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across
several applications in the automotive, agriculture, packaging and
construction segments. Cabot’s EVOLVE Sustainable Solutions
technology platform is designed to deliver sustainable reinforcing
carbons and other performance materials across three sustainability
categories – recovered, renewable and reduced.
Cabot has launched three new black masterbatch products powered
by EVOLVE Sustainable Solutions under the recovered category
including, REPLASBLAK™ rePE5475 100% circular black masterbatch,
REPLASBLAK™ rePE5265 70% circular black masterbatch and REPLASBLAK™
rePE5250 60% circular black masterbatch. All three products
leverage an ISCC PLUS certified mass balance approach. ISCC is a
globally applicable certification system designed to ensure
compliance with ecological and social requirements, greenhouse gas
emissions savings and traceability. Mass balance accounting is a
chain of custody approach designed to trace the flow of materials
through a complex value chain, including recycled feedstock at
plants.
- REPLASBLAK rePE5475 100% circular black masterbatch
leverages 100% ISCC PLUS mass balance certified material made from
reclaimed carbons from end-of-life tires pyrolysis and mechanically
recycled polyethylene. It delivers more than a 60% GHG reduction in
comparison to a standard black masterbatch and adheres to the ISCC
PLUS voluntary add-on GHG emissions requirements. It delivers
medium tint strength, making it suitable for applications that
require higher circular content including compounding, recycling,
injection molding and sheet extrusion applications relevant to the
automotive, agriculture, packaging and construction segments.
- REPLASBLAK rePE5265 70% circular black masterbatch
leverages 70% ISCC PLUS mass balance certified material made from
mechanically recycled polyethylene. It reduces GHG emissions by
nearly 50% in comparison to a standard black masterbatch and
adheres to the ISCC PLUS voluntary add-on GHG emissions
requirements. It delivers high gloss and jet pigmentation in
thermoplastics, making it suitable for compounding, recycling,
injection molding and sheet extrusion applications relevant to the
automotive segment.
- REPLASBLAK rePE5250 60% circular black masterbatch
leverages 60% ISCC PLUS mass balance certified material made from
mechanically recycled polyethylene. It reduces GHG emissions by
nearly 50% in comparison to a standard black masterbatch and
adheres to the ISCC PLUS voluntary add-on GHG emissions
requirements. It delivers high tint strength making it suitable for
compounding, recycling, injection molding and sheet extrusion
applications relevant to the automotive segment.
“We are proud to launch our new REPLASBLAK portfolio as we
advance in our sustainability journey and develop new products and
processes with a sustainability benefit. As the largest global
manufacturer of black masterbatch, we have the capacity and
expertise to deliver innovative solutions that help our customers

Region. “Our new black masterbatch products powered by EVOLVE
Sustainable Solutions will be manufactured at our plants in
Pepinster and Loncin, Belgium, which recently achieved ISCC PLUS
certification. This gives our customers third-party validation that
our products are leveraging circular value chains and certified
feedstocks in the product manufacturing process. With several
projects at various stages of development, we are excited about our
progress and look forward to continuing to collaborate with our
customers and industry partners on building out our product
