Responsible sourcing policy:

ETI FAB is committed to the responsible sourcing of minerals and is fully prepared to take action against any practices that contribute to exploitation, conflict, or unethical labor.

In regions such as the Democratic Republic of Congo, the mining of tin, tungsten, tantalum, and gold, known as “conflict minerals”, has fueled brutal civil wars, child labor, and systemic human rights abuses. Families are torn apart, children are forced to work in dangerous mines instead of going to school, and profits from these materials often fund armed groups that terrorize communities. The cost of these minerals, when sourced unethically, is measured not in dollars, but in lives.

Dodd-Frank Act

In 2010, Congress enacted the Conflict Minerals provisions of the Dodd‐Frank Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act with the goals of eliminating the illegal trade in gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten (Conflict Minerals) and cutting the funding of armed groups in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and its neighboring countries (Angola, Burundi, Central African Republic, The Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia) that are engaged in human rights abuses. Section 1502 of the Dodd‐Frank Act requires public traded companies to report to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and disclose on their website whether any of the Conflict Minerals in the products they manufacture or contract to manufacture originate in the DRC Region and the due diligence conducted to determine if the original sale of the mineral funded armed conflict. The SEC issued implementing regulations and guidance on August 22, 2012.

 

ETI FAB’s Commitment to Responsible Sourcing

ETI FAB has built a legacy of operating and sourcing in an ethically and socially responsible manner. Today, ETI FAB continues to be committed to ensuring our Fair and Square principles are honored in all of our business decisions. ETI FAB is dedicated to preventing the sale of products produced at the expense of communities, workers or the environment. We are committed to sourcing products from companies that share our values around human rights, ethics, and social and environmental responsibility.

ETI FAB culture is built on principles of ethical manufacturing, transparency, and long-term responsibility. These values align with global standards that oppose the exploitation of labor and the funding of armed conflicts through mineral trade. All raw materials used by ETI FAB are sourced domestically, primarily within Indiana and across the United States, to ensure traceability, accountability, and regional support.

ETI FAB strictly opposes the use of conflict minerals, including tin, tungsten, tantalum, and gold, obtained through unethical practices. The company has implemented internal policies to guide its responsible sourcing practices and holds its suppliers to those same standards. Before engaging with any supplier, ETI FAB conducts thorough background and compliance checks. All materials must be accompanied by proper certifications, and suppliers must demonstrate adherence to responsible sourcing standards. The company also works closely with partners and vendors to promote awareness and continuous improvement in responsible mineral sourcing throughout the supply chain.

ETI FAB fully supports the humanitarian goals of the Dodd Frank Act – eliminating illegal mineral trading and the funding of armed conflict while supporting legitimate commercial ventures. ETI FABdoes not directly purchase any Conflict Minerals from any source. Since the supply chain for Conflict Minerals is complex, we are committed to working with our supply chain to increase transparency regarding the origin and traceability of minerals contained in our products with the goal of ensuring that all products sold by ETI FAB to our customers are “DRC Conflict Free.”

ETI FAB will be carrying out supply chain due diligence consistent with the OECD guidelines. Suppliers of certain products will be required to complete the EICC‐GeSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template.

 

ETI FAB’s Expectations of Suppliers

Suppliers may not include in any products sold to ETI any tin, tantalum, tungsten or gold mined in the DRC or adjoining countries that fund armed conflict.

• Suppliers are required to develop Conflict Minerals policies, due diligence frameworks, and management systems, consistent with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) guidelines and to drive those efforts throughout their supplier chain.

• Suppliers of certain products will be required to provide written evidence of due diligence documentation including completion of the EICC‐GeSI (Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition – Global E‐Sustainability Initiative) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template.

To the extent available, Suppliers must use EICC‐GeSI designated Conflict‐Free Smelters as the source for any of the Conflict Minerals used in the products sold to ETI FAB.
