Participating companies

Natural stone companies from the Netherlands and Flanders participate in the TruStone Initiative. In doing so, they work on their responsibility business conduct, receive support from the secretariat and meet the requirements of governments and other customers.

Importing companies participating in the TruStone Initiative report on this annually to the secretariat. Companies that do not themselves import do not have to submit an annual report.

The assessment framework contains the Initiative’s requirements which must be met by importing companies. These requirements increase annually. The extent to which companies must implement them can differ. This depends, among other things, on the size of the company and its position in the value chain.

Overview of all affiliated Dutch and Flemish importers and processors

For importers, the overview indicates when the company has become a member of the TruStone Initiative and whether it meets the requirements related to the number of years it has been participating. A green number after the name of the company means that the company meets the requirements of the relevant year. An orange number means the company is still implementing the requirements.A number that has been crossed out means that the company is not yet a member in the relevant year.

A link to the company's action plan is also included. In an action plan, the company indicates which risks it has encountered in its supply chains it will tackle in the coming year. Companies that do not import materials which originate in, or are processed in, high-risk countries do not have to submit an action plan. High-risk countries are all countries outside of the European Economic Area.
