Supply Chain Management

Under the Global Sustainability Initiative, WPG Holdings supports Conflict Free Mineral Smelter Program developed by the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) and the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI), and regularly checks the supply chain information of the top 30 key agent suppliers for source of minerals and smelters through the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) or SD Form each year. At the same time, we also place emphasis on chemical safety management and conduct public information disclosure of the results of our due diligence work.

Conflict Minerals Management

With the aim of implementing the requirements of WPG Holdings on conflict minerals, we tracked the information by regularly reviewing the suppliers’ management policy of conflict minerals, whether they carry out investigations on the country of origin of minerals and other public information; and disclose the results of the investigation to the public, to implement WPG Holdings' commitment to supporting the use of legal, conflict-free minerals.

WPG Holdings’ Conflict Minerals Management Process is as follows:

After the disclosure of relevant information on conflict minerals tracked by WPG Holdings, the proportion of critical supplier minerals from non-conflict countries/regions and the proportion of qualified smelters are 80%. Among 30 critical suppliers, 80% (24 out of 30 suppliers) disclosed the proportion of validated smelters and refiners. Among the 30 critical suppliers that disclosed related information, 98.9% of materials used are processed from smelters, and refiners are verified as conflict-free. 2 of the 7 critical suppliers who did not disclose validated smelters and refiners' proportion are RBA members, 1 is an RMI member. All information is disclosed on the official website.
