| Please state how your organisation intends to comply with the RSPO Code of Conduct. Specifically in the following areas: | ||||
| How will your organisation promote the RSPO internally and to other stakeholders? : Promotion will be done via our website for our external customers and internally, via BC Net, for our own collaborators. In addition a customer specific mailing will be sent to all our customers, making them aware that BC is able to offer them sustainable palm applications, to start with mass balance and when volumes evolve, traceable volume as well. Our product managers in the different areas of the world will be made aware and stimulated to offer our customers this new possibility. | ||||
| Where relevant, what processes is the organisation establishing to engage with interested parties, for example to resolve conflict or to use sustainably produced palm oil? : There is a growing customer interest for sustainable palm. Being member of RSPO and having the plants using palm certified, will enable us to offer customers formulas that contain RSPO palm. In view of the low values at the start, only in mass balance but as soon as demand is increasing,, also as traceable palm. | ||||
| Where relevant, how will your organisation work towards implementing the RSPO Principles and Criteria or assessing supplier performance against these criteria? : According to us, this is irrelevant since our customers drive the demand and what they want to put in their formulas. By offering formulas containing RSPO, palm we can actively promote RSPO. | ||||
| Any other information that would support the application such as what your organisation hopes to gain from joining RSPO and how it would support RSPO? : By joining RSPO we continue to do what customers expect us to do: provide tailor made solutions and helping them to offer their customers products with ingredients from a proven sustainable supply chain. | ||||
