SAFETY

A Zero Incident Mindset is our goal; if a job cannot be completed safely, it will not be done. Every OCI employee is empowered to modify any operation that poses a potential threat to themselves, their fellow workers, the surrounding community, or the environment. 

We have also implemented a new SafeStart program to enhance our safety program. In 2018 and 2019 we were awarded the Silver status based on established milestones for training, sustainability, and integration of the new program.

Environment 

OCI Peroxygens understands how important it is to protect the environment. We take pride in the fact that all of our products are made from naturally occurring ingredients. Sodium Percarbonate (PC) is composed of soda ash and hydrogen peroxide. The biodegradability of PC is rapid and it is broken down into the following components: oxygen, water and soda ash. PC’s effectiveness coupled with its rapid decomposition into non-toxic substances make it the ideal way to clean with minimum effects on the surrounding environment.

Our products are effective and more environmentally friendly than other bleach chemicals that could be used in their place. OCI Peroxygens is committed to producing safe, innovative and reliable products for the future.
