Exhibit 1.01
H.B. FULLER COMPANY
Conflict Minerals Report
For the reporting period from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015
This Conflict Minerals Report (the “Report”) of H.B. Fuller Company (the “Company”) has been prepared pursuant to Rule 13p-1 and Form SD (the “Rule) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the reporting period from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015.
The rule requires disclosure of certain information when a company manufactures or contracts to manufacture products and the minerals specified in the Rule are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. The specified minerals, which we collectively refer to in this Report as the “Conflict Minerals,” are gold, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten. The “Covered Countries” for purposes of the Rule and this Report are the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia and Angola. As described in this Report, certain of the Company’s operations manufacture, or contract to manufacture, products, and the Conflict Minerals are necessary to the functionality of those products.
If a registrant has reason to believe that any of the Conflict Minerals necessary to the functionality or production of their products may have originated in the Covered Countries, or if they are unable to determine the country of origin of those conflict minerals, then the issuer must exercise due diligence on the source of the Conflict Minerals. The registrant must annually submit a report, Conflict Minerals Report (a “CMR”), to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that includes a description of those due diligence measures.
In April 2014, the SEC provided written guidance that explained that only companies who elect to claim that their products are “Conflict Free” are subject to an independent private sector audit. The Company is not claiming that its products are “Conflict Free”. Therefore, this report was not audited.
1. | Introduction |
a. | Company Overview. The Company is a leading worldwide formulator, manufacturer and marketer of adhesives, sealants and other specialty chemical products. Sales operations span 36 countries in North America, Europe, Latin America, the Asia Pacific region, India, the Middle East and Africa. Industrial adhesives represent our core product offering. Customers use our adhesives products in manufacturing common consumer and industrial goods, including food and beverage containers, disposable diapers, windows, doors, flooring, appliances, sportswear, footwear, multi-wall bags, water filtration products, insulation, textiles and electronics. Our adhesives help improve the performance of our customers’ products or improve their manufacturing processes. We also provide our customers with technical support and unique solutions designed to address their specific needs. We have established a variety of product offerings for residential construction markets, such as tile-setting adhesives, grout, sealants and related products. These products are sold primarily in our Construction Products operating segment. |
b. | Conflict Minerals Compliance Program (CMCP) Description. The SEC Final Conflict Minerals Rule1 (SEC Final Rule) requires a three-step compliance process: the first step is determining the applicability of the rule; the second step is conducting a “reasonable country of origin inquiry” (RCOI) to determine whether or not there is reason to believe that tin, tungsten, tantalum or gold (3TG), also referred to as conflict minerals, from the Democratic Republic of Congo or adjoining countries are present in the company’s products; and if so, the third step is conducting due diligence to determine the source and origin of those conflict minerals based on the facilities (smelter or refiners, “SORs”) in which they were processed. Companies requiring due diligence must use a nationally or internationally recognized standard such as the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (OECD Guidance2) to meet the SEC regulatory requirements. The sections below describe our approach to meet each of the three steps in the SEC Final Rule compliance process; these activities were completed in concert with a third party vendor. |
2. | Applicability of the Conflict Minerals Rule. |
a. | Product Overview. This report relates to products: (i) for which Conflict Minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of that product; (ii) that were manufactured, or contracted to be manufactured, by the Company; and (iii) for which the manufacture was completed during calendar year 2015. These products (referred to collectively as “Covered Products” in this Report) are the following: |
Certain equipment used or sold in our Adhesives Coated Products business, which the Company manufactures or contracts to manufacture, may contain Conflict Minerals in the electronic components of such equipment. |
Certain products manufactured or assembled by Engent, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, for its customers which contain electronic components and materials. Engent, Inc. was acquired by the Company in 2012 and is a provider of manufacturing, research and development services to the electronics industry. |
In our Conflict Minerals Report for calendar year 2013, we noted that certain specialty adhesives products, which the Company manufactures or contracts to manufacture might contain tin or tin-related compounds, which we believed at the time were within the scope of the Conflict Minerals Rule. For that subset of our adhesives products, the only potential Conflict Minerals that were potentially present were tin-related. In that subset of products, tin is used solely as a catalyst and, therefore, appears only in very small percentages of the finished product. Subsequent to the filing of our Conflict Minerals Report for calendar year 2013, we determined that these chemical compounds derived from tin were not in scope of the Conflict Minerals Ruleand therefore no reasonable country of origin inquiry needs to be made with regard to these chemical compounds. This determination was made as a result of: (i) analysis of the products containing these chemical compounds and (ii) published correspondence from representatives of trade groups regarding the SEC Staff’s position that certain chemical compounds (e.g., catalysts, stabilizers and polymerization aids) are not within the scope of the Conflict Minerals Rule as well as our confirmation from the SEC Staff in the fall of 2014 that the correspondence accurately reflected its position. |
b. | Recent Acquisitions.During calendar year 2015, we acquired several companies. None of the acquired companies had been obligated to provide a specialized disclosure report with respect to its use, if any, of conflict minerals. Of these two acquisitions, only Tonsan Adhesive, Inc. has any products within the scope of the Conflict Minerals Rule. However, the first year for including information for this company will be in calendar year 2016. Based upon our inquiry and belief, Continental Products Limited, a company also acquired in 2015, does not use Conflict Minerals in the products it manufactures or contracts to manufacture. |

2OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas,http://www.oecd.org/daf/inv/mne/GuidanceEdition2.pdf.
3. Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI).The Company has conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry regarding the Conflict Minerals. This good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the Conflict Minerals originated in the Covered Countries and whether any of the Conflict Minerals may be from recycled or scrap resources.
To complete the RCOI required by the SEC Final Rule, we engaged the Company’s applicable suppliers to collect information about the presence and sourcing of tantalum, tin, tungsten and gold (3TG) used in the products and components supplied to H.B. Fuller. The program utilized the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative’s Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT). Only CMRT’s version 3.0 or higher were accepted.
This year, in an effort to increase awareness of the Company’s conflict minerals compliance program (CMCP), supporting regulation, and frequently asked questions (FAQs) concerning 3TG mineral tracing, the Company used an outside vendor to communicate with the relevant suppliers and to introduce them to a Conflict Minerals resource centeras an educational tool to facilitate a deeper understanding of the program and education as to why information is being requested.
4. In response to our RCOI, some suppliers confirmed that their products originated from countries other than Covered Countries. Some suppliers indicated that their products included Conflict Minerals which originated from the Covered Countries. The majority of those suppliers indicated that such Conflict Minerals were from smelters that were certified as noted on Schedule 1.
5. Design of Due Diligence Framework.The Company’s due diligence measures have been designed to conform to the framework in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chain of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High Risk Areas: Second Edition, including the related supplements on gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten (the “OECD Guidance”) in all material respects.
6. Due Diligence Measures Performed.The Company has adopted a policy relating to the Conflict Minerals (the “Company Policy”),incorporating the standards set forth in the OECD Guidance. The policy generally states that the Company is committed to ethical practices and compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including theSEC’s regulations and the Conflict Minerals Rules. It states that the Company does not generally source Conflict Mineralsdirectly from the source of supply (mines, smelters, refiners) and that the Company is therefore generally removed by several levels from sources of supply of Conflict Minerals. The policy commits the Company to use reasonable due diligence to identify the source of any Conflict Minerals, realizing that this will entail the cooperation of its suppliers. The Company is committed to compliance with the Conflict Minerals Rules, including understanding the Conflict Minerals Rules, communicating and educating our personnel, suppliers and customers regarding the Conflict Minerals Rules and to create processes and procedures to conduct supply chain due diligence and comply with reporting requirements. The Company values its supplier and customer relationships and will work with our suppliers over time to ensure our compliance with the Conflict Minerals Rules.
The Company believes that the smelters and refiners of the Conflict Minerals are best situated to identify the sources of Conflict Minerals and has therefore asked its suppliers to identify the applicable smelters and refiners of Conflict Minerals in the Company’s supply chain. Most of the suppliers who provided information regarding smelters provided this information on a company level versus a product level. Therefore, we do not know if the materials from the smelters we have included in this Conflict Minerals Report are in our products. It will take additional time before we are able to obtain information at a product level and it is possible that we may not get product level information.
The Company has a steering committee which oversee the activities of a multi-functional group of personnel who have worked on due diligence and compliance related to Conflict Minerals. The composition of the steering committee includes several executive level officers. The multi-functional group includes employees from the Company covering areas such as regulatory, sourcing, finance, legal and operations.
In general, in our initial compliance efforts, a review of products and raw materials contained therein (including chemical composition) or components (for equipment) was completed and a list of suppliers of raw materials or components where Conflict Minerals were determined to be potentially present was assembled. New products and the raw materials used in those products is reviewed as such products are developed. The initial focus has been on top-tier suppliers of these raw materials or components. For these top-tier suppliers, the Company used a third party vendor to send out questionnaires including the EICC®-GeSI form (“Supplier Questionnaire”) to inquire about the country of origin of Conflict Minerals potentially included in the Company’s Covered Products. This template was developed to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding smelters that provide material to a company’s supply chain. It includes questions regarding a supplier’s conflict-free policy, engagement with its direct suppliers, and a listing of the smelters the supplier and its suppliers use. In addition, the template contains questions about the origin of conflict minerals included in their products, as well as supplier due diligence. Written instructions and recorded training illustrating the use of the tool are available on EICC’s website. Responses to these questionnaires were monitored and follow up communication was sent if a response was not received. The Company has not had any direct contact with mines, smelters or refiners. The Company will attempt to follow up with its suppliers related to incomplete responses or any responses deemed to be questionable or potentially not trustworthy.
The Company has undertaken an internal education process to ensure that relevant personnel are aware of the Conflict Minerals Rules and it has conducted training of several employee groups since the inception of due diligence efforts. In addition, it has designated personnel to respond to customer and supplier inquiries regarding the Conflict Minerals Rules. These personnel are part of the multi-functional group working on due diligence and compliance efforts.
The Company’s initial goal was to focus its efforts on top-tier suppliers of goods that may contain Conflict Minerals. Over time, the Company expects to extend its focus to the suppliers of those suppliers, and deeper into the supply chain, by urging its direct suppliers to make similar inquiries of their suppliers. The Company will review any suppliers who are materially non-compliant with our Conflict Minerals Policy for future business purposes. The Company will make reasonable efforts to find suppliers who comply with our Conflict Minerals Policy and who will meet our needs. The products that we manufacture that are subject to the reporting obligations of the Rule contain 3TG of unknown origin. We have not been able to determine whether the 3TG used in our products came from recycled or scrap sources, the facilities used to process these minerals, their country of origin or their mine or location of origin.
Facilities That May Have Been Used to Process Necessary Conflict Minerals, if Known, for H.B. Fuller Products.
Schedule 1 to this Conflict Minerals Report includes a list of facilities that may have been used to process necessary conflict minerals for H.B. Fuller Company products. This list is based on our due diligence for 2015. Most of the information was provided to us on a company level versus a product level, and the suppliers did not generally limit their responses to facility information for Conflict Minerals in products they supply to us specifically.
Countries of Origin of the Conflict Minerals processed by these facilities are believed to include:
Schedule 1 to this Conflict Minerals Report includes a list of potential countries of origin for each facility noted on the Schedule. Conflict Minerals contained in our Covered Products did not necessarily originate in the countries listed on Schedule 1. This is because our suppliers and manufacturers generally provided country of origin information in the survey responses at the company level, representing the suppliers’ and manufacturers’ entire product lines, and generally did not limit their responses to countries of origin for products they supply to us specifically.
a. | Conclusion |
After exercising the due diligence described above, the Company was unable to determine whether or not its products contain conflict minerals: (1) from recycled or scrap sources as defined in the Conflict Minerals Rule, (2) that did not originate in the Covered Countries, or (3) that did not directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups, as defined in the Conflict Minerals Rule, in the Covered Countries.
As set forth above, the Company will continue to engage with its suppliers to obtain complete and accurate information about its supply chain as it relates to Conflict Minerals and their origins.
