  • Providing European chlorine producing and consuming industries with a forum to represent their interests and communicating consistent messages to opinion formers on key issues faced by the industry;
  • Collaborating with international (e.g. the European Institutions and United Nations agencies) and national organisations to provide industry input and aid informed decision-making;
  • Promoting best practices in safety, environmental and health throughout the industry in accordance with the principles ofResponsible Care;

Euro Chlor provides :

  • A broad network of contacts with authorities, scientific experts, the media and user industries throughout Europe and the world;
  • Working parties of independent and industry specialists to undertake expert studies, create guidelines and prepare statements and position papers;
  • An extensive on-line library of technical, safety and environmental protection recommendations; workshops and seminars sharing best practice in manufacture, storage and transportation;
  • Information and assistance on industry standards, regulatory concerns and critical chlorine-related issues;

Euro Chlor's mission is to ensure a healthy and sustainable future for chlorine chemistry. To achieve this, an organisation has been developed to permit the active participation in federation activities by producers and users of chlorine and chlorine derivatives and by chlorine-related associations.

The Euro Chlor Secretariat, which embraces the European Chlorinated Solvent Association, consists of eight executives with six support staff. Working with the Secretariat are more than 30 committees and working groups. These regularly meet to discuss plans, set priorities and work closely with the Secretariat on implementation or action programmes within the framework of overall strategies set by the Management Committee and budget approved by the Annual Assembly of members.
