At CHEMTREC, we specialize in 24/7 emergency response services, acting as the first point of contact for businesses facing a crisis. But we’ve noticed a critical bottleneck in many companies' emergency procedures: slow, cumbersome, and fragmented internal communication processes. One of our clients had an overly complex system that led to significant delays in response times — until we helped them simplify it. Here’s how we turned their lengthy, multi-step emergency response process into a faster, more effective operation.
In the world of workplace safety, few things are more critical than staying compliant with OSHA regulations. In 2024, the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS or HazCom), codified under 29 CFR 1910.1200, was ranked as the #2 most frequently issued citation under the OSHA Standards. With over 3,100 citations issued and nearly $5 million in penalties for violations related to chemical hazard communication, it's clear that many organizations are still struggling to meet the requirements.
When it comes to hazardous materials, safety and compliance aren’t optional – they’re essential. That’s why CHEMTREC’s Hazmat Safety, Security, and General Awareness Training Course has become the go-to resource for thousands of professionals across industries. Whether you're new to hazmat handling or need a refresher, this course offers the foundational knowledge required to work safely and confidently with dangerous goods.
CHEMTREC is excited to share that the 2026 International Hazmat Summit will take place in Nashville, Tennessee, from September 21–23, 2026.
The maritime industry is rapidly evolving to meet the growing demand for advanced energy solutions, particularly lithium-ion batteries. As these technologies become more prevalent, so do the risks associated with their transport. To maintain safe shipping practices and regulatory compliance, it is critical for organizations to stay informed about evolving safety standards and invest in ongoing employee training.
