To support our compliance programs, each titanium dioxide operating facility maintains a site-specific environmental management system aligned with ISO 14001:2015 and/or Responsible Care.  These systems address each facility’s need to maintain compliance with local laws and regulations.

Our four European operating facilities hold ISO 14001:2015 certifications, while our Canadian facility is certified to the Responsible Care standard.  Additionally, some of our European facilities are also subject to the SEVESO III Directive, providing an additional layer of regulatory requirements related to environmental protection and worker and process safety.

These systems utilize internal and external audit processes that conform to the ISO 14001:2015 or Responsible Care standard and ensure adherence to KRONOS guidelines, applicable local and national laws, and SEVESO standards.  We have also implemented rigorous procedures for incident reporting and investigation, including root cause analysis of environmental and safety incidents and near misses, identifying appropriate corrective actions to prevent reoccurrence.
