Given that chemical products and technologies are used in a wide array of energy-saving and renewable energy applications, the chemical industry offers significant potential to help society achieve greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reductions.
ICCA's innovative Global Product Strategy strengthens industry's focus on product stewardship within the chemical industry and among suppliers and customers throughout the chain of commerce.
Responsible Care is the chemical industry’s unique “ethic”, enabling the global chemical industry to continuously improve its health, safety and environmental performance.
The major benefit of ICCA’s High Production Volume Chemicals program is that it delivers globally-harmonized, internationally-agreed data sets and initial hazard assessments that are recognized under national and regional programs.
The global goals of the chemical industry’s Long-range Research Initiative are to increase the knowledge of the potential impacts that chemicals may have on the health of humans, wildlife and the environment.
“We will demonstrate to governments, intergovernmental organisations and the public that our industry is a reliable, willing and responsible partner in meeting global sustainability objectives”
