A Word From Chemical Toller SOCMA President and CEO

SOCMA President and CEO Jennifer Abril commended MFG Chemical on its efforts to continuously improve environmental, health and safety as contract chemical manufacturers.

“Maintaining a safe environment for your staff and community is not an easy task,” Abril said. “It takes time, buy-in from both employees and leadership, and resources to achieve your goals. Congratulations to the MFG team for the thoughtful efforts they take to incorporate EHS&S considerations into their processes and products, and for creating a safe working environment for their employees and community. We look forward to MFG’s continued participation in ChemStewards®, which provides a platform where colleagues in the industry can learn from each other and share best practices that will assist them in building customer confidence, community trust and strengthening product stewardship throughout the value chain. We also appreciate MFG Chemical President and CEO Keith Arnold’s valued service on the SOCMA Board of Governors, and MFG’s overall commitment and contribution to SOCMA and the fine and specialty chemical industry,” Abril said.

We are happy that SOCMA has recognized our specialty chemical manufacturer efforts to improve environmental health and safety at our four plants. We know that the measures we take as a chemical toller at each plant greatly affect not only our industrial chemical manufacturers staff, but also our communities. We strive to be good stewards for our neighbors and are honored to be recognized as such in the contract chemical manufacturers industry.
