The Orbia Risk Management team worked with FM over the course of 2023 and 2024 to identify opportunities to safeguard facilities and ensure business and asset resilience. Orbia’s success in protecting its operations and preventing losses contributed to policyholder credits from FM of more than half a million dollars last year.

"This recognition from FM affirms that our investments in risk mitigation continue to have a meaningful impact on our business operations,” said Brian Merkley, Orbia Director of Risk Management & Insurance. "We believe that risk management isn’t just about preparing for the unexpected: it’s about building the kind of resilience that keeps our people and operations strong in any circumstance.

Orbia facilities honored in the award include Polymer Solutions (Vestolit) sites inclusive of the La Presa, El Salto, Altamira I and II, Coatzacoalcos and Cartagena locations and Fluor & Energy Materials sites including the St. Gabriel, Runcorn and Mihara locations. These site teams implemented actions ranging from enhancing process safety and emergency response plans to installing flood prevention methods and comprehensive sprinkler systems.

Our work with Orbia is a testament to the power of partnership – we are dedicated to collaboratively working together to find and implement the best property loss prevention solutions tailored to our clients’ business needs,” said Katy Shannon, Operations Senior Vice President, Chemical Operations Manager at FM.
