CREMER Commitment to Health & Safety

CREMER North America takes the health and safety of our employees, partners, clients, and communities seriously. We live our commitment to improve environments on every level through responsible operations, HSE Pledge, and our Responsible Care® certification.

We know that the health and safety of our employees is integral to the success and sustainability of our business. We set and hold our own environmental health and safety (EHS) standards, and we abide by the American Chemical Council’s Responsible Care® initiative.

Responsible Operations for Environmental Health & Safety

At CREMER North America, we’re committed to responsible operations in two important ways: as an integral part of our everyday business, and as a focus for continuous innovation. This commitment drives us to set our own standards for environmental health and safety (EHS), fully participate in industry initiatives, and often surpass what is required to earn responsible business practice certifications.

Our sustainable EHS practices guide and reward us in our work. With every adjustment we make to improve, we gain a more sophisticated understanding of the impact caring practices have on our employees, local community, and the world.

Health, Safety, and the Environment Pledge & Practices

We take our corporate pledge to protect health, safety, and the environment (HSE) seriously. CREMER North America employees find new and innovative ways to reduce waste within our supply chain, volunteer resources for pollution control in our local communities, and provide our fellow employees with a safe, clean workplace. We stand by and encourage these practices, as they are essential to the CREMER philosophy and maintaining efficiency, progress, and the future success of our business and planet.
