Responsible Care® Facility Safety Awards

Trinseo’s U.S. manufacturing facilities in Belen, NM; Dalton, GA; Louisville, KY; and Midland, MI sites were recognized by the American Chemistry Council (ACC) with the Responsible Care® Facility Safety Awards for 2023.
Safety is among our highest priorities at Trinseo.

It is our duty to care for our colleagues, as well as the environment and the communities where we operate. Our training programs are continuously updated to align with best practices, global standards and industry trends to maintain comprehensive opportunities for Environment, Health, & Safety (EH&S) development.

Our EH&S strategy is focused on reducing injury rates at our facilities. Our management system is rooted in Responsible Care® principles that enable us to align with and exceed industry-wide safety requirements. We maintain a culture of rigorous investigation, corrective action, and continuous improvement to deliver our world-class set of internal policies, processes, and procedures.

Progress on Our Safety Goal

In 2023, Trinseo experienced an incident rate of 0.30, which represents injuries and illnesses per 200,000 hours worked. Trinseo is among the top echelon for safety, as this is significantly less than the manufacturing industry average of 3.2 and the American Chemistry Council (ACC) rate of 0.74. To keep safety top of mind, we reimagined our internal safety campaign to deliver meaningful real-life Trinseo case studies to help expand safety awareness at our facilities.
