Apply for Logo and Claims Use: Our Process

Using the ISCC logo for your external communications strengthens your company’s reputation for sustainability. Credible communication of your sustainability efforts is key – third-party certification can help you build credibility and trust in your business relationships.

Are you a certified System User, a licensed brand owner, or – even better – both? You can apply to use our on-product logos and claims. Please allow sufficient time for the process. To get started, follow the steps below.

1. Obtain a Certificate or Licence

Only ISCC-certified or licensed companies are authorised to use ISCC-related communication materials. If you are not yet certified or licensed, check out our certification and licensing processes to get started. 

2. Review our Guidelines

Familiarise yourself with the ISCC 208 document to ensure your materials align with our communication standards.

ISCC 208 Logos and Claims (v2.2, 16 July 2025), valid from 16 July 2025

The compliance transition period for this document lasts 24 months, ending on 15 July 2027. Companies are advised to start preparing new artwork and updating their communication materials (both on- and off-product) as early as possible, following the new 208 (v2.2). Any new or revised artwork featuring the ISCC on-product logo or claim must be approved by ISCC. Similarly, off-product communications by licensees also need ISCC approval. From 16 July 2027, only the ISCC 208 (v2.2) version will be valid , meaning that all ongoing off-product communication and all newly printed marketing materials (both on- and off-product) must adhere to ISCC 208 (v2.2).

ISCC 208 Logos and Claims (v1.3, 26 April 2022), valid till 15 July 2027

This document provides clear guidance on the use and development of ISCC logos and claims, ensuring consistency, credibility, and transparency. It helps organisations communicate their sourcing of alternative materials effectively while protecting the integrity of ISCC and supporting the shift toward a circular economy.

3. Submit your Application

Draft your proposed communication material. Then, submit the material through our application form. 

  • If you are a System User, CB or ISCC Association Member, you don’t have to apply for the use of the ISCC corporate logo (off-product logo). Please download it from the ISCC client section. If you would like to use the ISCC on-product logos, please fill out the application form.
  • If you are a licensee or other stakeholder and would like to use any ISCC logo (on-product or off-product), please fill out the application form.

4. ISCC Review

We will review your application and may request additional information or provide feedback on your materials. 

5. Implement Feedback

Revise your materials based on our feedback and resubmit them for a final review. 

6. ISCC Approval

Once approved, display your ISCC-related materials. You need to notify us of any future updates or changes.
