Circle Logistics is proud to announce that it has been approved by the American Chemistry Council (ACC) as a new Responsible Care Partner. This milestone affirms Circle Logistics’ dedication to excellence in chemical supply-chain services, safety, compliance and environmental stewardship.

As a Responsible Care Partner, Circle Logistics aligns with ACC’s rigorous standards for continuous performance improvement across environment, health & safety (EHS), security, product stewardship and operational excellence. Additionally, Circle Logistics has committed to the global Operation Clean Sweep (OCS) program, joining the movement to prevent resin and chemical loss to the environment and to promote responsible logistics practices.

“Being accepted into the ACC Responsible Care Partner program is a significant step for our company and our customers,” said Robert Fortmeyer, general counsel at Circle Logistics. “At Circle Logistics, we view ourselves as expert partners in the safe and efficient transport of chemicals, and this recognition underscores our commitment to reliability, compliance and sustainability across the supply-chain.”

As consumer and business demands for safe and compliant chemical transport intensify, Circle Logistics' new Responsible Care Partner status highlights its commitment to meeting the industry's complex needs, including specialized equipment, haz-mat handling, cross-border movement, and risk mitigation. This deeper engagement aligns the company with the chemical industry’s shared goals for safety, sustainability, and transparency.

Through the Operation Clean Sweep program, Circle actively contributes to environmental stewardship by helping prevent plastic resin or chemical release during transport, reinforcing its commitment to a zero-loss environment.

Circle's collaboration with the American Chemical Council signifies a proactive stance in addressing the critical challenges of chemical logistics and environmental responsibility, setting a new benchmark for safety and sustainable practices in the industry.
