conflict minerals

With the Federal deadline rapidly approaching, many companies are upping efforts to meet new Federal requirements for conflict mineral reporting as laid out by Section 1502 of the Dodd Frank Act. To help, we’ve put together a short guide to help businesses on the road to a conflict free supply chain.

ControlTek has recently released our company’s response to new SEC reporting requirements for minerals classified as Conflict Minerals. These minerals can include tantalum, tin, tungsten and gold - many of the same minerals found in the manufacturing and assembly of printed circuit boards and electronics devices. The new requirements are effective for all publicly traded companies whose products contain these metals.
