A safer, more sustainable supply chain.
This undertaking demands a process and strict set of guidelines to ensure we are operating in the safest, most responsible, and environmentally conscientious method. Enter Responsible Care®; a proven initiative that serves as the chemical industry’s environmental, health, safety, and security performance initiative. Responsible Care® is the chemical industry’s commitment to the safe, responsible, sustainable management of chemicals throughout their entire life cycle, and for their intended end use. It’s a better way of doing business, and it’s the right way to do business.
Responsible Care® is a voluntary initiative led in the United States by the American Chemistry Council.
In the U.S., we demonstrate our commitment to these principles through Responsible Care Management System® (RCMS) accreditation.
PSA BDP’s corporate headquarters is also RC14001® certified, further demonstrating our commitment to responsible operations, environmental stewardship, health and safety, security, and continuous improvement.
We extend our commitment globally by signing the Responsible Care® Global Charter, which we renew annually as an ongoing affirmation of our pledge.
The Global Charter represents a shared commitment across our organization to responsible, safe and sustainable chemical handling practices worldwide.
Our commitment to service excellence is strengthened by practicing what we preach.
By embracing the guiding principles of Responsible Care®, we reinforce our commitment to protecting our people, our customers, our communities and the environment while continually raising the standard for responsible chemical logistics.
As a Responsible Care® Partner Company since 2003,
PSA BDP has been a leader in chemical logistics safety. We were the first international logistics company accredited under both RCMS and IMPCAS protocols, reflecting our longstanding commitment to responsible chemical handling. In 2025, our Philadelphia corporate headquarters also achieved RC14001® certification, reinforcing our focus on safety, sustainability, and continuous improvement.
We are honored to have been named the Responsible Care® Partner of the Year three times. The Responsible Care Partner Award recognizes the superb performance and safety record of companies involved in the distribution, transportation, storage, use, treatment-disposal, and/or sales and marketing of chemicals.
For over a decade, our Responsible Care® Global Charter is renewed on a yearly basis and guides our global commitment to continuously strengthening our performance and updating our progress on environmental, health and safety (EHS) performance measures.
