Bruxelles (Belgium), February 1st 2023 – The leading collaborative platform for the automotive sector, Drive Sustainability, facilitated by CSR Europe, is launching three new risk profiles for Leather, Rhodium and Tin on Raw Material Outlook – the data-driven platform providing an in-depth analysis of the ESG risks and impacts of materials used in the automotive value chains.
These are the last addition to list of materials available on Raw Materials Outlook, which includes also Aluminium, Graphite, Iron Ore, Magnesium, Manganese, Molybdenum, Nickel, Rare Earth Elements, Tantalum and Zinc. Five more risk profiles are expected to be added by Drive Sustainability in 2023.
Raw Materials Outlook has been developed by the Drive Sustainability’s Raw Materials Working Group, in collaboration with Levin Sources, as a contribution to the achievement of Responsible Sourcing, through risk identification and assessment, as well as under collective leverage and actions.
The platform also supports Drive Sustainability’s Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) with valuable insights on how to improve the efficacy of their risk and impact management strategies and processes.
