Responsible Care

Through the Responsible Care® program, we are committed to environmental stewardship, the safety and security of our operations, and the health and safety of our employees and communities.

Caring About the Future 


At Chemtura, we care about the future – for all of us.

That means we understand our responsibility to our employees, the communities in which we live and work, our customers, our shareholders and the world at large.

We are proud to be part of an industry that understands this responsibility and whose products improve the quality of life.

The basic substances and products that form modern life are chemicals.  The chemical industry is responsible for the food we eat; the clothes we wear and the detergents we wash them in; the cars we drive and the roads we drive them on; the buildings we live and work in; the medicines that make us feel better; and even the ink and paper that produce our books, magazines and newspapers.

Our industry is an integral part of the world economy.  As a contributor to the global economy, Chemtura adds value to our customers' products.  As residents of a world with finite resources, we must live with the results of our production.  We believe that as we produce products that benefit people's lives around the world, we are obligated to produce those products with environmentally sound methods.

Our core values of safety, integrity, creativity, collaboration, accountability and winning – and having fun while we work – give employees clear guidance on how to make decisions and how to interact with coworkers, customers, suppliers and others on a daily basis.  We believe that living our values is important in being a responsible company, in building shareholder value and in the success of our company.
