Strem Chemicals is pleased to announce it has been recognized for improving environmental, health, safety and security (EHS&S) performance at its Newburyport facility by the Society of Chemical Manufacturers and Affiliates (SOCMA), the leading trade association representing specialty chemical manufacturers.
Strem Chemicals participates in SOCMA’s ChemStewards® program, which encourages companies to operate their facilities in an environment that promotes safety and environmental compliance to all stakeholders.
Strem accepted a Bronze Performance Improvement Award at SOCMA’s 96th Annual Meeting and Member Dinner on December 4 in New York City. This is the 6th year Strem Chemicals has received the award. Dr. Ephraim S. Honig, Chief Executive Officer and R.J. Wolcik, Environmental, Health and Safety Specialist, accepted the award on behalf of the company at the awards dinner.
Strem Chemicals was recognized for its successful efforts to go above and beyond the federal requirement for environmental, health, safety and security (EHS&S) compliance along with employee training and engagement.
“We are extremely proud of the hard work our employees have done on our EHS&S program. This award reflects our commitment to constant improvement for our products, our workers and our neighbors in the community,” said Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Ephraim S. Honig.
Congratulations to Strem Chemicals and its employees on this achievement. As specialty chemical manufacturers, it is incumbent upon companies to be good environmental stewards and create a culture at their facilities that will ensure the safety and security of their employees and community in which they live.
