Trade
ICCA seeks to foster more competitive and sustainable global chemicals trade, and therefore global manufacturing trade and investment. The global chemical industry engages in over $2 trillion in world trade.

The International Council of Chemical Associations (ICCA), the global voice of the chemical industry, is putting the power of chemistry to work. What others see as challenges, we see as opportunities. ICCA’s member associations, federations, and companies invest, manufacture, and deploy life-enhancing products and technologies around the world—especially in countries that need it most—in order to overcome our world’s most pressing challenges.
Responsible Care is an essential part of ICCA’s contribution to the Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management (SAICM)—a policy framework to promote chemical safety and sound management around the world. Through Responsible Care, global chemical manufacturers commit to pursue an ethic of safe chemicals management and performance excellence worldwide.
We live in a world of an ever-growing population with increasing demands but limited resources. As the global voice of the chemical industry, ICCA is committed to helping the world overcome its most pressing sustainability challenges.
The Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management (SAICM) is a voluntary, multi-stakeholder approach that enables all relevant stakeholders to contribute to building a stronger foundation for the sound management of chemicals and waste.

Now—more than ever—people don’t just want sustenance. They want to know that the food we eat, the water we drink, and the products we buy, are affordable, safe, and sustainable. Chemistry plays a unique role in protecting the environment, making our world a more sustainable place, and helping people live longer, healthier lives.
ICCA represents chemical manufacturers and producers around the world. Leaders from the European Chemical Industry Council (CEFIC) and American Chemistry Council (ACC) typically share and alternate secretariat responsibilities every two years. ICCA members account for more than 90 percent of global chemical sales, and more than 120 million people around the globe are employed directly or indirectly by our industry.
