National Chemical Emergency Centre
The National Chemical Emergency Centre (NCEC) plays a key role in national arrangements for responding to chemical incidents. It provides a 24 hour national advice service to the public emergency services on dealing with chemical incidents and is a central part of the Chemical Industries Associations CHEMSAFE scheme. In addition to its national role, the NCEC also offers a number of commercial emergency response services, such as CARECHEM24, to assist companies in providing and obtaining chemical emergency response advice and information.
The NCEC has been operating the UK's national 24-hour chemical emergency response centre since 1973. This makes it one of the most experienced teams in the world in understanding the requirements of both the chemical industry and the emergency services. The NCEC have a team of Emergency Responders, who are all qualified chemists and have received extensive training in chemical health and safety, emergency response and communication skills.
The NCEC provide a range of products and services for chemical manufacturers, distributors, traders and others involved with the chemicals supply chain. These products and services not only help you to comply with legislation, but also provide help to Emergency Responders when preparing for, or responding to Hazmat incidents.
