Equitrans Petrochemicals Group announced that its subsidiary, American ME Global, has obtained a carbon footprint certificate from the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) system, making it the first ethylene glycol producer in the United States to receive this certification.
In a press release on Sunday, Equitrans Petrochemicals stated that the certification covers its production of monoethylene glycol and diethylene glycol at American ME Global’s industrial facilities in Oyster Creek, Texas.
The company emphasized that obtaining this certification represents a significant step toward achieving Equitrans’ environmental, social, and governance (ESG) objectives, translating its sustainability priorities into concrete actions, and providing customers with reliable data on the product-level carbon footprint.
The certification provides American ME Global’s customers with independently verified data on the carbon footprint of each product.
The statement quoted Equitrans Group CEO Nasser Al-Dosari, who said that the group’s ESG strategy focuses on translating sustainability priorities into tangible steps that support its operations and customers.
Al-Dosari affirmed that obtaining the ISCC carbon footprint certification reflects this approach by providing independent and reliable carbon footprint data, enabling customers to confidently use it in their reports and decision-making.
He noted that obtaining the ISCC certification marks an important milestone in American ME Global’s journey, particularly as it is the first ethylene glycol producer in the United States to receive this certification.
He added that as disclosure requirements for carbon emissions evolve in major global markets, the availability of reliable data on the emissions of each product has become increasingly important in purchasing decisions and supply chains.
He further stated that independent third-party verification has become crucial for enhancing trust in environmental information by ensuring rigorous and transparent review.
For her part, Julia Cockerham, Director of the Carbon Footprint Verification Program at SCS Global Services, said that both American ME Global and Equitrans demonstrate their commitment by investing in independently verified, reliable carbon footprint data, which supports informed decision-making across the value chain and strengthens efforts toward a more sustainable future.
American ME Global operates one of the most geographically widespread ethylene glycol production activities in the world, serving customers globally.
