Outstanding Safety and Operational Excellence Performances
Safety Award
The Changshu site in China, Arkema’s largest industrial platform, this year earned the Safety Award. This rewards a number of outstanding results, in particular TRIR = 0 in 2015, a steady fall since 2012, or three million man-hours with no injury.

Operational Excellence Award
The Beaumont plant in the United States, which specializes in the manufacture of sulfur derivatives, and the Sartomer BU, a global supplier of acrylate and methacrylate monomers and oligomers, both also demonstrated relentless operational excellence, and so were each presented with the Operational Excellence Award.
Meanwhile, the Beaumont plant brilliantly demonstrated how it improved its reliability with an 80% reduction in 2 years in the cost of unplanned events.


The Arkema Awards reward the progress and the results achieved; they attest to the work of everyone involved, and are a source of satisfaction and pride for the personnel of the winning sites.
