Personal care ingredient supplier DKSH has attained the US Alliance for Chemical Distribution’s (ACD) responsible distribution verification.
The certifications verify compliant facilities based on guiding principles that include strict adherence to laws and regulations, as well as collaboration with stakeholders to develop responsible practices that protect the community, workplace, and environment.
Participation offers insight to methods that help to mitigate the risk of safety and environmental incidents, and the promotion of safer and more socially responsible business practices.
It also offered improved communication with local communities, and continuous progress in sustainability and innovation, all while ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.
Eric R. Byer, ACD President and CEO, said: “Responsible distribution is critical to the chemical distribution industry’s ability to safely deliver more than 500 million tons of essential ingredients every year.
“Through their successful verification, DKSH has committed to the continuous improvement of the chemical distribution industry’s responsible management and handling of chemicals that ensure ACD members effectively support industries the USA relies on most,” he added.
