Holcim (US) Inc. announced that two of its plants—Holly Hill in Holly Hill, S.C. and Theodore in Theodore, Ala.—were recognized during the Portland Cement Association’s (PCA) Spring Board of Directors meeting in Chicago on April 16, 2012.

The Holly Hill plant received the PCA’s Chairman’s Safety Performance Award in recognition of their exceptional health and safety programs. The Theodore plant received the Environmental Performance Award in recognition of the steps they take beyond those required by laws, regulations and permits to minimize their impact on the environment.

“Safety and the environment are of utmost importance to Holcim,” said Bernard Terver, president and chief executive officer of Holcim (US).  “This recognition is a reflection of our employees’ commitment to making sure that each of our employees and visitors to our facilities go home safely at the end of the day and of their commitment to protecting the environment. They have worked hard to produce these results and are deserving of these awards.” BD+C
