Industry association recognizes CPChem for operational safety and sustainability

The American Chemistry Council has recognized Chevron Phillips Chemical, among other industry leaders, for its outstanding safety performance and its commitment to a sustainable future.

The 2024 awards were announced at ACC's Annual Responsible Care® and Sustainability Conference and Expo in May.

"Responsible Care isn't just a commitment - our companies and employees are taking meaningful actions to drive safety and sustainability, setting a standard of performance for the entire industry to aspire to," said ACC President and CEO Chris Jahn. "Our 2024 winners serve as beacons of excellence in fostering a culture of safety and promoting the health and safety of people, communities and the planet."

CPChem received six Responsible Care® Safety Awards and two Energy Efficiency Awards, one for exceptional merit.
