Railcar leasing company GATX received a Responsible Care 2017 Partner of the Year Award from the American Chemistry Council. The award was presented to GATX at the ACC’s annual Responsible Care Conference and Expo in Miami.
The ACC’s Responsible Care Program has been in place for almost 30 years, and is designed to bring chemical producers and their key suppliers together to demonstrate a common commitment to continuously improving the industry’s safety, sustainability and overall performance. GATX is a Responsible Care Partner in both the ACC’s program in the U.S. and the Chemistry Industry Association of Canada’s Responsible Care Program.
GATX was specifically recognized for its superb performance and safety record in the distribution, transportation, storage, use, treatment, disposal and/or sales and marketing of chemicals.
