Responsible Care®

Responsible Care®

Unique to the chemical industry, Responsible Care® is a global voluntary initiative that aims to continually raise standards in all areas of the industry.

Each SIA member is fully committed to the Responsible Care® programme.

Through the solvents-focussed activities of the SIA, all members are provided with advice and guidance to comply with the most up to date legislation and best practice initiatives. All members are encouraged to share this guidance with all parties that come into contact with their products.

What is Product Stewardship?

In simple terms, Product Stewardship is the responsible management of all health, safety and environmental aspects of a chemical product throughout its life cycle. This is Responsible Care® in action.

Product Stewardship underpins all activities of the SIA, and is the reason the Association is committed to the development and promotion of tools to enable improvements to health, safety and environmental procedures.
