Case Study: Cabot Microelectronics halves incident rate and centralizes SDS and chemical management with Ideagen EHS

Cabot - Customer Case Study

Cabot Microelectronics is a global supplier of consumable materials for semiconductor manufacturers and pipeline operators, with roughly $1B in revenues, 2,000+ employees, and 20 locations worldwide (headquartered in Aurora, Illinois). Facing the challenge of managing distributed chemical information and Safety Data Sheets (SDS) across multiple geographies, the company needed a single, easy-to-access system to streamline hazard analysis, labeling, chemical review, and compliance with regional regulations.

ProcessMAP’s cloud and mobile EHS platform provided an enterprise-wide SDS and chemicals management solution—offering a single source of truth, automated workflows for regulatory and safety reviews, and streamlined risk assessment. The initiative supported Cabot’s sustainability goals and drove measurable safety improvements: total recordable incident rate fell from 0.80 (2009) to 0.41 (2017), while reporting and prevention efforts increased (1.2x more corrective actions and 1.6x more near-miss reports over the past two years).
