As with many other products, the intermediates to make final silicones need to be handled correctly to ensure safety, for example, at work, in storage and in transportation. This is known as ‘operating safety’.

This site is an initiative of the Centre Européen des Silicones to promote such operating safety and is part of our industry’s commitment to Responsible Care®.

This site:

• Provides information about the safe operation of production plants.
• Recommends processes and procedures to promote correct handling of intermediates by producers and customers.
• Helps spread best practices on operating safety in the silicone industry.
• Makes sure that emergency services have immediate access to vital data in case of accident.
• Provides contact details for further general information.
