REDUCING OUR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
Although we are a small business and our environmental footprint is small, we are working to progressively reduce our resource consumption. We are currently taking steps to establish our baseline performance, set targets and reduce our environmental impact.
We are committed to operating our business to high ethical standards and integrity. We will maintain strong governance systems that enable us to comply with laws and regulations, mitigate risks and build trust and confidence in our customers.
We will support our customers meet their sustainability commitments by being transparent and open about our business, and by helping our customers use and discard our products responsibly.

We are a small team, attracting talented people and retaining them is important for our business sustainability. We try to provide a safe and rewarding workplace that supports performance improvement and skills development.
We source raw materials for our assay products, crucibles, cupels from suppliers in developing countries. We are committed to working our suppliers to identify potential issues adopt high environmental and labour standards.
We believe that by managing our sustainability impacts, we can find efficiencies in our business processes and operations and drive innovations in products and services. We will continue to seek more efficient and innovative ways of doing things so that we can reduce costs and support business growth.
