globalization and the advancing technologies. These have created a more demanding

more complex supply chain and this increase in complexity, combined with higher
customer expectations, will put a lot of pressure on the supply chain. We

experiences and offering assistance to others who produce, handle, use, transport or
dispose of our chemicals." The judges certainly agreed - they awarded the coveted
