LSB Industries, Inc. (NYSE:LXU) (“LSB” or “the Company”), a producer of chemical products for the agricultural, mining and industrial markets and a leading manufacturer of commercial and residential climate control products, today announced that its El Dorado Nitrogen L.P. (“EDNLP”) subsidiary’s operation at the Bayer MaterialScience complex in Baytown, TX has been recertified by the Occupational and Safety Health Administration (“OSHA”) as a Star Site.

OSHA’s VPP promotes effective collaboration between facility management, labor and OSHA to establish comprehensive worksite-based safety and health systems.

“We are very proud of our team at Baytown,” stated Barry Golsen, LSB’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “EDNLP first implemented the program and received Star Site certification in 2003, and has demonstrated continual improvements to its health and safety management system since that time.
