Collaborations and Shared Commitments

CPChem is also helping to prevent plastic loss by committing to global initiatives like Operation Clean Sweep^® and collaborative plastic management programs.

Operation Clean Sweep^®

For more than 25 years CPChem has been part of OCS^®, a global initiative to prevent plastic resin loss and keep plastics out of waterways. Across our global plastic handling facilities, CPChem follows OCS^® guidelines, which include sharing best practices, enhanced reporting, third-party audits, and cross-industry collaboration. In 2025, we completed our first OCS third party audits across facilities in the United States and the Middle East.

CPChem was recognized with the 2025 Operation Clean Sweep^® Difference Maker Award for its strong commitment to eliminating plastic resin loss and strengthening environmental stewardship across the industry.
