Responsible Mineral Sourcing
Human rights violations and environmental destruction in the procurement of mineral resources are recognized as serious global issues, and companies are required to engage in responsible sourcing. In light of these international expectations, our group is committed to promoting responsible mineral sourcing throughout the entire supply chain.
We kindly ask for the cooperation of our business partners in adhering to the following policy on responsible mineral sourcing.
AACA Group Policy on Responsible Mineral Sourcing
- The AACA Group strives not to procure conflict minerals (tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold) that are mined in connection with inhumane acts such as human trafficking, slavery, forced labor, child labor, abuse, and war crimes, as well as high-risk minerals (such as cobalt and mica) that cause serious human rights violations or environmental destruction.
- We respect internationally recognized frameworks for responsible mineral sourcing and will conduct supply chain due diligence to ensure responsible sourcing.
- Based on available information, we strive to avoid the use of minerals associated with conflict or inhumane practices.
