Environmental Policy, ChemTreat, Inc.
As the largest independent firm dedicated solely to industrial water treatment, ChemTreat, Inc. has an obligation to reduce environmental risks and increase environmental benefits associated with the use of water in industrial processes. Our company values specify that all processes involving our products and practices will be undertaken with a concern for the environment; therefore we:
· Have established an Environmental Management System (EMS) to ensure proper care for all chemicals used in the production and distribution of our products
· Develop new technologies with an emphasis on environmental protection
· Customize treatment programs to optimize performance in every industrial water system we treat.
ChemTreat realizes that our business involves the acquisition, manipulation, transportation and storage of chemicals, which if not properly controlled, introduce increased risks to health, safety and the environment. Accordingly, we have established systematic procedures to evaluate potential risks, establish procedures to manage those risks on a priority basis, and review and update our programs as conditions or capabilities change. This includes a commitment to prevent pollution and to comply with all applicable legal and other requirements.
ChemTreat strives to continually evaluate new products and technologies that will provide better solutions to our clients’ water treatment needs. With a state-of-the-art water treatment laboratory, staffed with PhD research personnel, we initiate new approaches and innovation at the leading edge of our industry including an emphasis on these critical areas of concern with direct environmental implications:
· Energy conservation
· Water conservation and reuse
· Overall water quality and use restrictions
· Environmental fate of treatment chemicals
· Health and safety
Industrial water treatment, by its very nature, benefits the environment. Therefore, ChemTreat does more than just maintain environmental regulatory compliance and prevent pollution where possible. Additionally, we assist our customers in achieving their own objectives to minimize adverse environmental impacts from their processes through employment of optimally effective water treatment programs. ChemTreat works in partnership with our customers to produce the most efficient water and energy management systems to optimize process effectiveness and conserve such resources as natural waters, fuel, and materials of construction.
