Process Chemicals Data Collection (PCDC) Tool

Process Chemicals Data Collection (PCDC) Tool

The Process Chemicals Data Collection (PCDC) Tool is a free and publicly available standardized reporting tool that improves the task of collecting and managing process chemicals data. Specifically, the PCDC Tool: 

  • Creates a common format for consistent collection of information across the supply chain, enabling efficient exchange of chemical use information between tier suppliers and makes the integration of data into existing systems easier
  • Enables identification and quantification of chemical use, including those with potential for industry-wide elimination/safer substitution
  • Improves chemical management of Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) audits as well as company and supplier insights into risk areas
  • Enables industry collaboration to reduce risk and prepare for future regulatory and/or customer request
