EXHIBIT 1.01
CONFLICT MINERALS REPORT OF
METTLER-TOLEDO INTERNATIONAL INC.
FOR THE PERIOD JANUARY 1 TO DECEMBER 31, 2023
Background
We are a leading global supplier of precision instruments and services. We have strong leadership positions in our businesses and believe we hold global number-one market positions in a majority of them. Specifically, we are the largest provider of weighing instruments for use in laboratory, industrial, and food retailing applications. We are also a leading provider of analytical instruments for use in life science, reaction engineering and real-time analytic systems used in drug and chemical compound development, and process analytics instruments used for in-line measurement in production processes. In addition, we are the largest supplier of end-of-line inspection systems used in production and packaging for food, pharmaceutical, and other industries.
We are committed to conducting our business ethically, legally, and in a socially and environmentally responsible manner. As part of this commitment we seek to understand the origin of the materials that go into our products and the social and environmental impacts their sourcing has. Accordingly, we take seriously the requirements of Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act. To ensure we meet these requirements we adopted a formal, company-wide conflict minerals policy, which we communicate to and enforce with our suppliers. This policy describes our commitment to compliance with conflict minerals requirements, supplier due diligence, and ongoing supply chain evaluation. It is publicly available as part of our Ethical, Social, and Quality Standards at www.mt.com/policies. We also actively engage our suppliers in an effort to determine the source of certain defined minerals, collectively referenced in this report as “3TG”1, in our products and if armed groups benefited from their production. The relevant product categories2 for our analysis were laboratory balances, pipettes, analytical instruments, automated chemistry solutions, process analytics, industrial weighing instruments, industrial terminals, transportation and logistics, vehicle scale systems, product inspection, and retail weighing solutions.
This report describes our engagement and its results, and was filed as Exhibit 1.01 to our Form SD for the reporting period for January 1 to December 31, 2023.
3TG Disclosure
After our reasonable country of origin inquiry (as described below), we concluded in good faith that for the period January 1 to December 31, 2023, 3TG were necessary to the functionality or production of products we manufactured and contracted to manufacture (“our products”).
Description of Inquiry/Analysis
We describe below the actions we took with respect to the 3TG that are necessary to the production or functionality of the products we manufactured or contracted to manufacture for sale in 2023.
Reasonable country of origin inquiry: We performed a reasonable country of origin inquiry on the materials in our products. We designed the country of origin inquiry to determine whether any of the 3TG necessary to the production or functionality of our products originated in the Conflict Region or are from recycled or scrap sources3. Our inquiry included our suppliers of materials containing 3TG or posing a high risk of containing 3TG. For 2023, we again expanded the scope of our inquiry, contacting our major electronic component suppliers in scope4, representing more than 90% of our 3TG risk categorized materials. We asked suppliers to define if they are using 3TG in their products, and if so, to identify the origin, mines, and smelters of the 3TG they provide. If the scope of our current inquiry was expanded to 100% of our necessary materials we expect the results would be similar to those detailed in this report.
To carry-out our reasonable country of origin inquiry we asked our suppliers to complete the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT)5. We reviewed the results of this supplier survey for reasonableness and red flags:
•Approximately 60% of the suppliers we contacted responded with a completed CMRT, which reflects the impact of expanding our scope of inquiry.
•With respect to 60% of the responses we did not follow-up with our supplier because, for example, the 3TG provided either, (i) did not originate in the Conflict Region, (ii) we have no reason to believe they may have originated in the Conflict Region, (iii) came from recycled or scrap sources, or (iv) we reasonably believe they came from recycled or scrap sources.
Due diligence: Under the direction of a steering committee comprised of our Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel, and Head of Supply Chain and IT, our Procurement Project & Process Specialist is performing follow-up due diligence on the source and chain of custody of approximately 40% of our country of origin inquiry responses. We subjected a response to due diligence if after the country of origin inquiry we could not determine that its 3TG either, (i) originated outside the Conflict Region, (ii) we have no reason to believe they may have originated in the Conflict Region, (iii) came from recycled or scrap sources, or (iv) we reasonably believe they came from recycled or scrap sources.
Our due diligence conformed to the five steps of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development’s “Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas,” which specifies establishing strong company management systems, identifying and assessing risks in the supply chain, designing and implementing a strategy to respond to identified risks, carrying out independent third-party audits of due diligence practices, and reporting annually on supply chain due diligence. Our due diligence approach is comprehensive, beginning at the commencement of our relationship, continuing throughout the relationship with active engagement, and concluding each cycle with an analysis of the information gathered. We leverage our membership with RMI (the Responsible Minerals Initiative, formerly called CFSI (Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative)) to complete our due diligence. Members of the Responsible Business Alliance and the Global e-Sustainability Initiative founded RMI in 2008, and it has grown into one of the most utilized and respected resources for companies addressing responsible sourcing issues for 3TG.
| | | | | | | | |
| Relationship Commencement | Supplier Engagement | Analysis |
•Supplier engagement due diligence. We perform due diligence at the commencement of our relationship with each supplier. This due diligence is leveraged with respect to 3TG suppliers. | •Supplier surveys. We request additional country of origin and internal policy information from our suppliers using the most recently updated version of the CMRT published by RMI.
| •Industry cooperation. When available, we leverage resources available through industry cooperation. These efforts include checking suppliers, intermediaries, mines, and refineries against industry watch and conflict free lists. We also subscribe to, and participate in, the RMI collaborative database.
|
•Policy communication and contracting. We have adopted a conflict minerals policy that we communicate to suppliers, and the public, at www.mt.com/policies. We also seek to include a provision requiring due diligence support in all our supplier agreements. Where necessary, we will enforce our policies and agreements against suppliers. | •Work done upstream. As a company positioned downstream in the supply chain we request copies of, and must rely on, the due diligence performed by our suppliers, who are positioned further up the supply chain.
| •Red flags. We follow-up on and address red flags discovered during our process.
|
Identification and Mitigation of Risks
Because we are positioned downstream, our principal risk is having suppliers with non-existent or inadequate due diligence to assure a responsible supply chain of minerals from conflict-affected and high-risk areas. Our due diligence sought to identify risks upstream by assessing the due diligence practices of those parties upstream. Where our due diligence identifies risks or red flags we seek to confirm that no facilities benefiting armed groups are in our supply chain and that 3TG from those facilities do not make their way into our products. In the reporting period we further enhanced the steps we take to mitigate the risk that our 3TG benefit armed groups by: reclassifying our supplier base with responsible sourcing as a key criteria for future participation; continuing and expanding the sustainability curriculum of our supplier trainings; enhancing our risk analysis processes; and conducting supply chain transparency training throughout our procurement organization, including red flag and due diligence training for our procurement managers. In the coming period we anticipate additional improvement steps will include increased communication with our suppliers to improve response rates and due diligence responsiveness, ongoing training, third-party verified supplier assessments, and further enhancements to risk analysis processes and tools to improve our due diligence. To mitigate the risk that the necessary conflict minerals benefit armed groups in the Conflict Region, we have reiterated our conflict minerals expectations to our suppliers. We also have grievance mechanisms in place internally, and publicly, to act as an early-warning risk-awareness system.
Independent Private Sector Audit
As permitted by applicable rules, we are not submitting an independent private sector auditor’s report with respect to this report.
Mine or Location of Origin
Our efforts to determine the mine or location of origin of our 3TG with the greatest possible specificity included the due diligence measures and the reasonable country of origin inquiry described above. In making our determination we relied on information our direct suppliers provided and information available on the RMI database. At times, we were unable to identify the mine or location of origin of our 3TG because our suppliers could not give us sufficient information to make the necessary determinations and contact details were not available to establish communication further down the supply chain.
The following tables list the recognized facilities that may have processed the 3TG in our supply chain. However, due to the over-reporting nature of the industry’s CMRT information collection process, and the nature of our supply chains, we are unable to confirm the presence of any of the below facilities in our supply chain. Some of these facilities' 3TG may not end up in our products and we do not request product specific information from our suppliers. We identified red flags, including sanctions, with respect to certain of the facilities below. We ask all suppliers that identify a red flag facility to remove that facility from their supply chains, and will continue to follow-up with and engage with our suppliers to eliminate the red flag facilities from our supply chain and mitigate any other identified risks.

RMI identified countries as possible origins for the 3TG these facilities may process include:
RMI maintains a list of countries of origin for the 3TG the assessed facilities may process, which we reference. However, since this data is provided in aggregated form we are unable to identify the countries of origin for the 3TG in our products with specificity.
|
* Smelter and refiner facility names and locations as reported by RMI as of April 24, 2024.
______________________________________________
1As used in this report, “3TG” refers to, collectively, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin, and tungsten.
2Product categories include the products described under the same headings in Part I, Item 1 of our 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
3As used in this report: “Conflict Region” at the time of our analysis means the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the countries sharing an internationally recognized border with it, namely Angola, Burundi, Central Africa Republic, The Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia. 3TG from “recycled or scrap sources” means 3TG from recycled metals, which are reclaimed end-user or post-consumer products, or scrap processed metals created during product manufacturing. Recycled metal includes excess, obsolete, defective, and scrap metal materials that contain refined or processed metals that are appropriate to recycle in the production of tin, tantalum, tungsten and/or gold. Minerals partially processed, unprocessed, or a bi-product from another ore are not included in the definition of recycled metal.
4The scope of our inquiry was limited to operations on our global enterprise platform, or Blue Ocean. “Blue Ocean,” as described in Part I, Item 1 of our 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, is our program to establish a global operating model with standardized, automated, and integrated processes, and high levels of global data transparency. Operations covered include units in Benelux, China, Germany, Japan, Southeast Asia, Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States, which includes our principal manufacturing operations. We have no reason to expect results would be materially different for operations not on Blue Ocean.
5The Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) is offered by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI), an initiative of the Responsible Business Alliance and Global e-Sustainability.
