GATX Corporation (NYSE: GATX) was recently selected by the
Chemistry Industry Association of Canada (“CIAC”) to receive the
2023 Responsible Care® Excellence in Partnership Award. This award
was presented to GATX at the annual CIAC board of directors’
meeting on Oct. 22, 2024.
The CIAC’s Responsible Care Program has been in place for over
35 years, and is designed to bring chemical producers and their key
suppliers together to demonstrate a common commitment to
continuously improve the industry’s safety, sustainability and
overall performance. GATX is a Responsible Care Partner in both the
CIAC and the American Chemistry Council (ACC) program in the United
States.
CIAC’s president and chief executive officer, Bob Masterson,
stated, “We are so proud of our outstanding awards winners this
year. They have all shown formidable effort and leadership in
implementing Responsible Care over the past year.” GATX was
specifically recognized for its significant contribution to the
CIAC’s Transportation Community Awareness and Emergency Response
(TRANSCAER) initiative, which aims to inform communities about the
products being transported through their area, and what measures
are in place to ensure their safe transportation. GATX outfitted
and donated a new safety training railcar to TRANSCAER who will use
the car to train emergency responders throughout Canada on how to
safely manage transportation incidents involving hazardous
materials.
Paul Titterton, executive vice president and president of GATX
Rail North America said, “On behalf of our dedicated employees at
GATX, we are very proud to receive this award from the CIAC. The
award is a testament to the intense focus we place on safety and
operational excellence as well as to our commitment to ensuring
that best safety practices are shared across North America.”
