As the largest carbon black manufacturer in Europe, safety, health and environmental (SH&E) protection is a top priority in everything we do, and we are continually committed to providing a motivating and fulfilling work environment for all of our employees.
Built in the early 1960’s and acquired by Cabot in 1985, our team of nearly 90 employees consistently strives to apply our expertise in the production of semi-reinforcing and reinforcing carbon blacks while maintaining the highest safety and health standards for all of our employees, contractors, visitors and neighbors.
Commitment to Safety
Prioritizing Employee Well-being
Safety is our number one priority every day. We are committed to operating our site according to the highest SH&E standards to ensure a safe and healthy workplace.
Safety First
Every year we join our colleagues around the world to celebrate the Global Sustainability Day during which we discuss our SHE and sustainability accomplishments and ways to improve our performance.
The industrial environment in which we operate requires us to always act responsibly. At Cabot our main SH&E tool is the Last Minute Risk Assessment which must be completed just before starting work to provide a final review of the task at hand.
We strive for excellence and continuous improvement in everything we do, and we believe that a clean, organized and well-maintained workplace is key to achieving excellent safety performance.
We strive to help young people in our community grow their expertise and advance their careers. Through our apprenticeship program, participants receive comprehensive training for the “Refining and Petrochemical Operator” degree. Over the last 10 years, more than 15 apprentices have graduated from this program, and nearly two thirds of those graduates chose to start their careers with us.
