Versalis-owned Finproject gains recognition for sustainable products

Morrovalle, Italy – Versalis-owned Italian compounder Finproject has obtained ISCC Plus certification at its industrial sites in the Marche and Abruzzo regions of Italy for the manufacture of compounds and products from sustainable raw materials.
