To give confidence to our customers, we have assessed human rights and environmental risks in every country from which we source stone, using sophisticated third-party analytical tools. Our ongoing efforts include a focus on understanding labour risks in factories and quarries at all levels of our supply chain. We have also used third parties to trace some products back to their raw material origins.
Marshalls align with the nine principles of the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) Base Code, including that employment is freely chosen, working conditions are safe and hygienic, and child labour is prohibited. We maintain strong relationships with our natural stone suppliers, emphasising our values throughout the procurement, onboarding, monitoring, and relationship management processes.
