Taking Safety Seriously

Apr 19, 2022

Praxair carefully reviews each step in our product life cycle to ensure that products not only meet government regulations, but also meet Praxair’s demanding design, quality and safety standards.

 
Praxair is consistently a top safety performer — with recordable injury and lost work case rates that are five times better than the U.S. industrial average and three times better than the U.S. chemical industry average. We maintain this level of safety by actively identifying risk factors and working to continuously improve performance worldwide in every key safety metric. Praxair distribution drivers consistently achieve a very low vehicle accident rate. Our facilities regularly achieve Praxair’s goal of “zero accidents, zero injuries” in any given quarter, and health, safety and the environment are critical considerations when we develop new products and processes or design and operate our production facilities.
