Thrilled to be working with @aimeeboulanger and her amazing team at the Initiative for Responsible Mining Assurance (IRMA) to create a sector specific, multi-stakeholder, sustainability standards programme for glass. We are calling on all glass sector organisations and civil society to join us in shaping this new standard. Get in touch! #ResponsibleGlass #InitiativeforResponsibleMiningAssurance #IRMA #SustainableGlass #GlassIndustry
Today, ResponsibleGlass and IRMA announce a landmark partnership to advance responsible sourcing across the global glass value chain. The collaboration establishes a clear path to align ResponsibleGlass’s developing standard for low-carbon glass production with IRMA’s comprehensive best practices for the responsible extraction of materials such as sand, silicates, and soda ash. Together, ResponsibleGlass and IRMA will: 🔹 Align standards for sourcing mined materials with IRMA’s proven framework. 🔹 Reduce duplication by leveraging IRMA’s assurance systems for raw materials. 🔹 Build market demand for responsibly sourced glass across building, automotive, solar, and technology sectors. 🔹 Explore shared systems for tracking materials through the glass supply chain — from cradle to grave.
