Responsible Care : Outreach Efforts Of Icc Members

Members of Indian Chemical Council were requested to highlight the activities they have conducted during the last 1 year focussing the following areas:

  • Community outreach program under Responsible Care
  • Best practices under any code of Responsible Care
  • Efforts made for creating awareness about Responsible Care with customers, suppliers under Product Stewardship Code.

Many of the ICC membersignatories of Responsible Care have responded overwhelmingly of their activities and it was decided to publish the same in CHEMICAL NEWS which will act as stimuli for other members.

Here is the write up received from Clariant Chemicals (India) Ltd. Hope this will be very informative to all logo holders and to Responsible Care committed companies
