Chemistry making a world of difference

The Mission

To maintain and develop a prosperous chemical industry in Europe by promoting the best possible economic, social and environmental conditions to bring benefits to society with a commitment to the continuous improvement of all its activities including the safety, health and environmental performance.

The Goals

Enhance member value
It is essential that the work of Cefic is focused on those issues and activities that are important to the members ensuring that their needs are met, that they are kept properly informed and that the benefits are maximised in a cost effective way.

Earn public trust
A successful chemical industry is an essential part of a prosperous and sustainable society. We cannot expect the public to take this for granted so we must demonstrate that we are a responsible partner through our initiatives. Good external communications and dialogue with our stakeholders are central to this theme.

Achieve effective public policy
Cefic plays an important part in promoting the development of workable, proportional and predictable and science-based legislation with the authorities while ensuring the continued competitiveness of the industry and protecting the Single market.
