Successful with the CBA Responsible Care Programme
We are delighted and pleased to announce that we have now formally joined the Program with the CBA Responsible Care Programme.
Our Chairman, Bryan Davies highlighted this programme early on in focusing on refining Castle’s strategic direction and this sits well with our Ecovadis, Reach and ISO.
Castle Chemicals has been positively moving forward and concentrating on the increasing quality and professionalism of the established positioning within our sector.
Part of this process was setting out a route map to further professionalise the company to improve the experience for the Castle Team, our Partners and Customers.
An important step on this path was joining the CBA Responsible Care Programme.
We would like to thank the CBA for its support and guidance through the process, particularly during the challenging CV19 period.
We are thrilled to receive this Award for this programme and see it as a substantial as part of our on-going journey as we continue to develop and grow as a business.
What is Responsive Care?
Responsible Care is the chemical industry’s commitment to continual improvement in health, safety, security and environmental performance. It is a global initiative. In the UK, Responsible Care covers the whole of the chemical supply chain – from manufacturers, through to distributors and logistics companies.
Compliance with Responsible Care is mandatory for all CBA member companies involved in the trading, distribution, handling, movement and storage of chemicals.
How does Responsible Care measure performance?
Since 1993, CBA has measured the chemical distribution sector’s performance. This is a unique and valuable record illustrating the sector’s year-on-year progress.
Member companies are required to provide Indices of Performance covering key aspects of their health, safety, security and environmental performance. Since 1993, this data has been collected annually, aggregated and published as the distributor Indices of Performance Bulletin.
It aims to provide CBA members and their employees, local communities, regulators and other industry stakeholders with a benchmark against which to measure the sector’s year-on-year performance.
Indices of Performance cover:
• Fatalities and Reportable Injuries
• Lost Time Accidents
• Dangerous Occurrences
• Transport Incidents
• Waste Disposal
• Enforcement actions
In 2007, CBA launched a dedicated Logistics Index specifically to measure the health, safety, security and environmental performance of the growing number of logistics companies in CBA membership. Similar Indices of Performance data is also collected annually, aggregated, and then published as the Logistics Index.
Whilst subject to year-on-year fluctuations, both the CBA’s Distributor Indices of Performance Bulletin and Logistics Index illustrate the long-term benefit of Responsible Care and its ability to deliver significant improvements in the industry’s health, safety, security and environmental performance.
