Sustainability Report

Royal Selangor is committed to ethical and sustainable business practices, taking significant steps to ensure that our tin is sourced from suppliers and smelters who meet the highest ethical standards. We purchase only MSC-brand tin, produced by Malaysia Smelting Corporation Bhd. (MSC), a conformant smelter recognised by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI). This approach reaffirms our dedication to responsible sourcing and ethical production.

SUSTAINABLE SOURCING AND CIRCULAR ECONOMY

Sourcing materials responsibly is fundamental to Royal Selangor. We partner with suppliers who share our commitment to sustainability, prioritising renewable, recyclable, and low-impact materials. This philosophy extends to our design and operations—we recycle all manufacturing waste and provide customers with the option to return unwanted pewterware for recycling. Beyond sourcing, we’re also embracing circular economy practices by designing products that can be reused, recycled, or repurposed. We believe that by extending the life cycle of our products and materials, we can significantly reduce waste and contribute to a more sustainable economy. The Dodd-Frank Act, enacted in July 2010, mandates the disclosure of the use of conflict minerals—such as tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold—originating from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and adjoining countries. The purpose of this requirement is to ensure that the purchase of these minerals does not fund armed conflict or contribute to human rights abuses in the region.
