ISO 14001 and Responsible Care

The Dow Chemical Company has globally implemented the International Council of Chemical Associations and American Chemistry Council's, Responsible Care® program. The headquarters in Midland, Michigan, was certified to Responsible Care in 2005. This management system is broader in scope than ISO-14001. In addition to the environment, the program includes provisions for safety, health and security as well as the publishing of specific metrics.

Using Responsible Care® as the base, many of our European facilities have fulfilled their EMAS requirements and certified to ISO-14001. With the broad stakeholder participation of customers, the public, government, competitors, and industry partners, such as the transportation industry, Responsible Care® is a superior system for the chemical/plastics industry to address environmental, societal needs and sustainable business development. We have built a global corporate certification for ISO-14001 similar to the quality certification based on Dow's Responsible Care ® program.
