Covestro and Carlisle Construction Materials collaborate to bring bio-circular products to the construction industry.

MDI with attributed bio-circular raw materials will be used by in Carlisle’s rigid foam insulation panels.

Covestro will supply Carlisle with Mondur CQ 489 MS isocyanate, a methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) that is based on ISCC PLUS certified mass balanced bio-circular raw materials.

The material features up to a 99% lower product carbon footprint, compared to fossil-based MDI, and specifically has a potential of CO2 reduction of 2.4 KG/KG of MDI produced. This will allow Carlisle to produce its high-performance polyiso insulation boards with lower embodied carbon.

Covestro’s CQ “Circular Intelligence” represent the company’s circular products with an attribution of at least 25% alternative raw materials derived from biomass or recycled plastics.

Carlisle Construction Materials aims to achieve net zero by 2050. The company will produce its bio-based rigid foam insulation, which contains 5% bio-circular content, for the SynTec, Versico, Hunter Panels and WeatherBond brands.

“With our new bio-based rigid foam insulation, we are demonstrating our unwavering commitment to environmental responsibility while ensuring that our customers have access to the most advanced building materials available,” said Steve Schwar, President of Carlisle Construction Materials.

For Covestro, the company aims to be operationally climate neutral in scope 1 and 2 by 2034 and in scope 3 by 2050. It has ISCC PLUS certified facilities in every major global market, including its manufacturing facility in Baytown, Texas.
