Crismachem joins Responsible Care Program

– Marcelo Montoro –

Responsible CareĀ® is the global chemical industryĀ“s voluntary initiative to drive continuous improvement in safe chemicals management and achieve excellence in environmental, health, safety, security and communication performance, according to the principles of Sustainable Development.

AECQ | AsociaciĆ³n EspaƱola del Comercio QuĆ­micoĀ manages the Responsible Care Program for Distributors of Chemical Products in Spain, based on the Responsible Care Program of Fecc (European Association of Chemical Distributors) which in turn is based on the 8 Guiding Principles of ICCTA (International Council of Chemical Trade Associations) RC/RD.

In Europe, more than 300 Chemical Distribution companies are joined to Responsible Care, an international initiative present in more than 50 countries worldwide.

The objectives of the Program are perfectly aligned with CRISMACHEMĀ“s Higher Purpose, which is based on an integrating vision of the legitimate development of the productive activity of chemical companies together with the contribution of this industry to social welfare and sustainable development, deepening for this in all areas of social responsibility.
