Product stewardship and product safety

We apply a rigorous and consistent approach to identify and evaluate risks associated with new and modified products and their manufacture, use and disposal. Similarly, new technologies are continually adapted to improve product performance. Product safety and health hazard information are also monitored, and any risks requiring specific management processes are communicated to customers, third parties and the public.

Our product safety policy reflects a commitment to high operational standards. To help meet this commitment, a Product Stewardship Information Management System (PSIMS) is in place. PSIMS outlines a set of roles and responsibilities that support the preparation of product material safety data sheets and labels for communicating information about our products such as health hazards, first aid, safe handling, transport, use and disposal.
