Camco Chemicals: Environmental Policy 

The Camco Chemicals
Environmental Quality Statement


 
  The responsible use of chemicals -- be it their transportation, use or disposal -- is at the core of Camco's philosophy.

Camco is pledged to support a better environment. That commitment includes responsible stewardship of all operations, and consideration of environmental factors in product and manufacturing methods. The range of this commitment includes: procurement, transportation, receipt, handling, storage, testing, use, discharge and disposal of all chemicals used in its operations. Camco chemical directs these operations through an environmental management system having the primary objectives of:

  • Meeting or exceeding all applicable government requirements and those voluntary requirements to which Camco Chemicals subscribes
  • Reducing the impacts of operations on the environment through improvements in processes, preparation for emergencies, good housekeeping and maintenance, and prevention of pollution
  • Identifying and controlling workplace hazards, and training all employees to contribute to the quality of their environment
  • Conducting rigorous audits and self-assessments of Camco's compliance with this policy, and measuring progress of Camco's environmental performance
  • Continually improving Camco's environmental management system and its performance

Last, the Camco environmental commitment rejects the idea that safe, responsible use and good business practices are separate -- as well as the notion that good environmental stewardship can be a short-term plan.
