Responsible Sourcing
At CPChem, we follow inclusive and socially responsible procurement practices and strategies throughout our global procurement, supply chain and feedstock organizations.
We believe engaging qualified, local and diverse suppliers strengthens our supply chain and drives continuous improvement in the communities where we operate and serve.
We expect our suppliers to comply with applicable laws and internationally recognized standards, conduct business ethically and share the principles set out in our Supplier Principles of Conduct (SPOC). This policy, which was updated in 2026, articulates our expectations to support compliant practices, fair labor practices and human rights, health and safety, and ethics and compliance within our supply chain.
In our risk assessment for core and principal suppliers, we assessed their practices and compliance with CPChem’s SPOC. In addition to the assessment, CPChem seeks to elevate its supplier network by leveraging targeted follow-up meetings to share best practices and enhance supplier operations.
Local First GTP
In 2023, Golden Triangle Polymers—a joint venture between CPChem and QatarEnergy—invested $400,000 in a community focused initiative known as Local First. Through the Local First program, CPChem works in partnership with Orange County officials and Workforce Solutions Southeast Texas to prioritize the engagement of local businesses when sourcing suppliers, vendors, and labor for the Golden Triangle Polymers project. The initiative has also supported the expansion of workforce development opportunities across the Golden Triangle region.
SDG #8, Decent Work and Economic Growth
Municipal Donation to City of Orange – Upgrade to Softball & Baseball fields.
The City will use the donation to upgrade lighting at the ball fields to provide brighter and broader coverage. City officials estimate that replacing the 25-year-old lighting is expected to help reduce electricity costs by as much as $35,000 annually.
“Supporting community youth projects is essential because they often offer safe spaces where children can engage in positive activities, learn from mentors and form supportive peer relationships. We especially love that the city chose to invest in a park project that brings families together to enjoy America's favorite pastime,” said Chad Jennings, plant manager for Golden Triangle Polymers.
