The Responsible Care Program

Responsible Care® is a global, voluntary initiative developed autonomously by the chemical industry. 
It stands for the chemical industry's (including national chemical federations and associations) desire to improve health, safety, and environmental performance.

The signatory chemical companies agree to commit themselves to improve their performances in the fields of environmental protection, occupational safety and health protection, plant safety, product stewardship and logistics, as well as to contribute to the sustainable development of the planet.

In Italy, the Responsible Care Programme, started in 1992 and managed by Federchimica, is currently pursued with commitment and determination by 170 large, medium and small Italian and foreign companies.
