Conserving nature's limited resources and minimizing impact on people and the environment during manufacturing, distribution and use of our products are part of an ongoing process of learning and improvement at NexChemical. To initiate and continue this process is one of the key tasks of future-oriented company management.The company has made this a commitment to this responsibility since foundation.
In developing our products we consider their potential environmental impact. Minimizing these effects during manufacturing, use, disposal and recycling is one of our primary goals. Our laboratories across the world work hard to develop new applications for recycled secondary raw materials, to establish recovery programmes and to help discharge landfills.
Manufacturing Details and Product Usage Details
Eliminating environmental effects at source has top priority compared to repairing the damage after the fact. This is both of benefit to the environment and to the company in economic terms.
It is one of the professed aims of our company to develop and use safe, non-hazardous products with the least possible impact on humans, nature and the work environment. This is the primary responsibility of management.
Our Immediate Goals:
to prevent or minimize environmental impact and occupational hazards whenever and wherever possible
to develop products and processes that will have a minimum effect on people and the environment
to conserve natural resources
to ensure that facilities, products and activities meet legal regulations and internal policies
to assist governmental agencies and other official organisations engaged in environmental activities
to inform our employees, customers as well as the interested and concerned public about results and activities stemming from occupational, health and environmental protection analyses.
Management expects its people to cooperate in and support all activities related with this and to carry out their work in compliance with company instructions as well as with all occupational, health and environmental regulations and laws. In doing so, they will come constantly closer to our goal of superior occupational, health and environmental protection.
Local Batch Production
NexChemical always if possible uses localized batch production to minimize inefficient and environmentally costly global shipping. NexChemical maintains and blends products locally in order and minimize stocking, environmental waste all while offering efficiency and cost savings. NexChemical currently maintains blending operations in Asia(Tokyo, Japan), North America (Oakland, California) and South America (Chile). Our formulas contain biodegradable ingredients derived from natural materials like soy, coconut and palm oils. Our packaging is made from the most readily recyclable materials. Our CO2 emissions from employee commute and travel are offset with carbon credits and the energy used in our manufacturing sites and our office is from renewable energy credits.
Recovery of used products
For us, product responsibility goes beyond development and production. That's why we ensure that customers can use our products safely and dispose of or recover them correctly after use. Together with our various product groups and laboratories, our specialists for product safety and environmental protection work out safety instructions and recycling/disposal concepts that guarantee end users get all the necessary information about our products.
