INTRODUCTION

Aluminij Industries (hereinafter “Aluminij” or “we”) is committed to high standards of transparency, accountability, ethics and integrity, creating a culture where everyone feels free to speak about concerns securely and confidentially.

We are also committed to ensuring concerns are treated seriously and handled and/or investigated in a manner that protects a whistleblower’s identity.

We do not tolerate retaliation against anyone who speaks openly about conduct they believe is unethical, illegal or not in line with our Code of Business Ethics and policies, even if the concern doesn’t turn out to be substantiated, and as long as it is not raised knowing it is false.

PURPOSE

This policy is intended to inform all current and former employees and others (consultants, customers, suppliers and other third parties) of this commitment, to encourage reporting of possible violations at the earliest opportunity, and to lay out procedures for reporting and investigating complaints and the protections afforded to whistleblowers.

DEFINITION

A whistleblower is a person reporting information that he/she suspects on reasonable grounds to be about or to indicate a protected concern. A whistleblower may or may not be directly affected by a protected concern.

SCOPE OF THE POLICY

A whistleblowing concern covered under this policy include:

All forms of financial malpractices or impropriety such as fraud, corruption, bribery, theft and concealment;
Failure to comply with legal obligations, statutes, and regulatory directives;
Actions detrimental to Health and Safety or the work environment;
Any form of criminal activity;
Improper conduct or unethical behavior that undermines universal and core ethical values such as integrity, respect, honesty, accountability and fairness;
Other forms of corporate governance breaches;
Connected transactions not disclosed or reported in line with regulations;
Insider abuse;
Non-disclosure of interests;
Workplace or sexual harassment;
Attempt to conceal any of the above listed acts.

Although the whistleblower is not expected to prove the truth of an allegation reflected in the reported concern, if the whistleblower has evidence to demonstrate that there are sufficient grounds for concern and enough to warrant further investigation, the whistleblower is expected to produce such evidence.

This policy does not supersede the terms of any collective bargaining agreement or any other applicable law.

CONFIDENTIALITY AND ANONYMITY

A whistleblowing concern can either be made confidentially or anonymously:

Full Disclosure – the whistleblower’s name is known and will be disclosed in the report
Partially Anonymous – the whistleblower's name is known but will not be disclosed, without their consent, unless required by law.
Anonymous whistleblowing – the whistleblower does not identify themselves to anyone at any stage.

Whistleblowers may submit protected concerns anonymously without disclosing their identity. However, proper handling and/or investigation is more difficult, and sometimes impossible, if Aluminij does not know the whistleblower’s identity.

Generally, whistleblower is encouraged to provide his/her name because it will make it easier for Aluminij to assess, investigate and address his/herdisclosure. If whistleblower do not provide his/her name, the investigation will be conducted as best as possible in the circumstances and whistleblower will still be protected in accordance with this Policy. Sometimes an investigation may not be possible unless enough information is provided, and it may make it difficult to offer whistleblower the same level of practical support if we do not know his/her identity.

POLICY BREACHES

This Policy support our values and reflect what is important to Aluminij. Non-compliance with this Policy may result in disciplinary action.

Depending on the severity of the breach, consequences may range from a warning to termination of employment.

COMMITMENT

Aluminij Industries d.o.o. recognises that our supply chain activities can have wide ranging social and environmental impacts and that our responsibility extends beyond our own operations, into our supply chain.

We are committed to socially and environmentally responsible procurement and have set high standards for the way we do business so our customers and other partners know we can be trusted.

Our business mindset requires that we work only with Suppliers who have the ability to consistently meet our standards and specifications and are committed to values of conduct that are compatible with our own.

This commitment is reflected in our Code of Business Conduct for Suppliers Aluminij Industries that sets out the minimum standards of behaviour we require of our Suppliers.

We ask our Suppliers to not just comply with the Code, but to use reasonable endeavours to exceed it and promote continual improvement throughout their business operations.

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) invite action from the private sector to address some of the world’s most pressing development issues. Situated in a broader ethical sourcing framework, our Code is one way Aluminij Industries aligns with the SDGs.

APPLICATION AND ACCEPTANCE

The Code is applicable to all contract Suppliers and business partners, who are expected to cascade these requirements to their own supply chain.

Sustainability and compliance with this Code are part of the criteria Aluminij Industries uses during Supplier selection, and this Code is applicable to all of our Suppliers and their affiliates.

Suppliers must diligently provide official answers, documents, certificates related to sustainability as soon as it is requested by Aluminij Industries.

Adhering and signing this Code is therefore a requisite to do business with Aluminij Industries.

ASSESSMENT

By adhering to this Code, each Supplier accepts to be assessed or audited by Aluminij Industries or by a third party mandated by Aluminij Industries.

In case of violation of this Code, Aluminij Industries will determine corrective actions with the violating Supplier which can include termination of our business relationship.

QUESTIONS

Suppliers may raise any concern or questions by sending an email at the following email address:

in**@******ij.com

We will provide guidance when requested.

GOALS

Aluminij Industries d.o.o. has no legal responsibility for the business standards of its suppliers. However, according to UN and OECD standards, we are expected to act with due diligence towards our suppliers to avoid contributing to human and labor rights violations, environmental degradation, or anti-corruption violations within the supply chain.

Aluminij Industries defines responsible sourcing as conducting purchases in a way that enables the company to identify the risk that violations of human and labor rights, environmental protection legislation or anti-corruption legislation may occur in the company's supply chain and - if such violations are detected - initiate actions against the supplier to end the mismatch.

This document describes the key principles of responsible procurement in Aluminij Industries.

We believe that by adhering to these principles, we will not only contribute to more sustainable supply chains but also reduce commercial risk and strengthen our long-term competitiveness.

2. SCOPE

This procedure covers all procurement activities within Aluminij Industries.

3. LIABILITY

The senior management of the Company is responsible for updating this policy.

The Sales Department, the Procurement Department and the Legal Department are responsible for being guided by the principles of this policy.

4. DESCRIPTION

4.1. PRINCIPLES FOR RESPONSIBLE SOURCING IN ALUMINIJ INDUSTRIES

Responsible sourcing in Aluminij Industries involves risk-based engagement with suppliers, meaning that efforts should be directed toward the product categories and suppliers that pose the greatest risk. Aluminij Industries is dedicated to continuous improvement, both in terms of setting internal goals and in terms of expectations for suppliers to achieve progress.

4.2. SUPPLIER REQUEST

Aluminij Industries Code of Business Conduct for Suppliers describes requirements for suppliers in relation to management and ethics, labor and human rights, occupational health and safety, and the environment. This Code should be communicated to all suppliers with a special focus on risky suppliers. Suppliers should be encouraged to present the same type of requirements to their suppliers.

4.3. RISK EVALUATION

Aluminij Industries will carry out a risk assessment of its suppliers to identify suppliers that may pose a risk of non-compliance with the requirements presented in Code of Business Conduct for Suppliers.

Supplier evaluation will be conducted according to our supplier evaluation procedure which includes the “Supplier Evaluation Form”. The supplier's risk assessment will be carried out based on the specified form. It will be categorized as low risk, medium risk or high risk. Suppliers that are assessed as medium or high risk suppliers should be subject to a more detailed risk assessment.

4.4. REACTIONS TO VIOLATIONS OF THE CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT FOR SUPPLIERS

The purpose of responsible sourcing is to use our purchasing power to better influence supplier business standards. Therefore, when violations of the Code of Business Conduct for Suppliers are discovered, the contract with the supplier should not be automatically terminated, even when the contract gives us the right to do so. Instead, the company will assess the severity of the breach. The usual response to non-compliance should be to follow up with suppliers through requirements, dialogue, and guidance.

Suppliers who do not meet our requirements will demonstrate a willingness to comply by documenting improvements within a specified timeframe. In case of a serious breach of requirements or lack of progress over time, the contract should be terminated. Risk issues associated with complex supply chains, such as for commodities, should be addressed on a case-by-case basis. Potential actions may include product certification, collaborative projects with other industry players, or government dialogue.

Taking responsibility for the implementation of the principles of sustainable development in regular business is manifested by supporting generally applicable principles in the areas of employment and work, ethics, biodiversity and environmental protection, health and safety at work, and quality and related leadership and management systems.

Integrated Management System

We establish and maintain an integrated management system encompassing environmental protection, safety, and sustainability, aimed at systematic monitoring, reporting, and continuous improvement of our business processes.

We regularly educate and engage all employees on topics such as energy efficiency, waste reduction, responsible resource management, and ethical behavior, embedding sustainable practices into our corporate culture.

INTRODUCTION

At Aluminij Industries d.o.o. (hereinafter "Aluminij" or "we"/"us"/"our"), we recognize the critical role that responsible energy use and climate action play in building a sustainable future. This Energy and Climate Policy sets out our commitment to managing energy efficiently, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and promoting environmental stewardship throughout all areas of our business.

This policy applies to our entire organization and those with whom we do business or are our partners, including suppliers, sellers and contractors.

PURPOSE

It is our responsibility, and at the same time our focus, that resources are used as carefully and conscientiously as possible. This philosophy shapes everything we do. Aluminij Industries produces aluminum logs, small ingots and aluminum blocks which, apart from their shape, also differ in terms of production and energy requirements. Light, durable and infinitely recyclable, aluminum as a material can help solve many global energy and climate challenges.

In a global business environment that is undergoing a transformation towards sustainability, the aluminum industry plays a pivotal role. Due to its property of being almost infinitely recyclable, aluminum is positioned to lead the way in building a sustainable industrial future.

The aluminum industry on a global level continuously introduces innovations in technological processes in order to reduce energy consumption and therefore carbon production, which has a direct impact on reducing environmental pollution in terms of impact on air quality and flora and fauna. It can be safely concluded that aluminum, as an industrially usable potential, has its important place in creating a greener future, in which Aluminij Industries also found its important place. Mostar.

The overall importance in contributing to environmental protection, and thus to the prevention of negative climate change, is the use of green energy. Namely, our company uses CNG – compressed natural gas as an energy potential and electricity that is entirely produced from green sources, regularly monitoring emissions of harmful gases into the air in accordance with legal obligations.

Leading the shift towards green electricity in production, Aluminij played a pivotal role in encouraging electricity suppliers in Bosnia and Herzegovina to adopt green certificates. Our Guarantee of Origin, issued by “OIEiEK Operator”, confirms that each individual MWh of electricity used is sourced from renewable energy—such as wind, hydroelectric or solar. This certificate serves as proof of our commitment to clean and sustainable energy.

In addition to all that, Aluminij Industries continuously works on the rationalization of energy consumption, which is the focus of the activities of all our employees, and therefore the entire team.

Reducing carbon emissions is a priority for all of us. Renewable energy is clean, reliable, and generates no or fewer emissions during production. While compliance with legal standards is essential, Aluminij strives to lead by example - setting its own voluntary sustainability standards and fostering broader systemic change.

ENERGY MANAGEMENT PRINCIPLES

In line with international good practices and our continuous improvement philosophy, Aluminij Industries recognizes that effective energy and climate management requires a structured and integrated approach across all operational levels.

To this end, we are committed to the following principles:

Energy Management System:

We aim to establish and maintain a system for monitoring, measuring and analyzing energy consumption across production processes and facilities. By collecting accurate and timely data, we can identify inefficiencies and implement targeted improvement measures that support energy conservation and cost-effectiveness.

Employee Awareness and Training:

All employees have a role in achieving our energy and climate goals. Aluminij will ensure that staff at all levels receive relevant education and training to understand the impact of their activities on energy use and carbon emissions, and to encourage conscious and responsible energy behavior.

Continuous Optimization:

Energy performance will be continuously evaluated and improved through technological upgrades, process innovation and operational efficiency. We will regularly assess our energy footprint and identify areas where we can further reduce energy intensity or switch to lower-impact alternatives.

Sustainable Procurement:

When selecting suppliers and partners, preference is given to those who demonstrate strong environmental and energy practices. We encourage our supply chain to adopt similar standards, contributing to broader environmental and social goals.

By embedding these principles into our daily operations, we aim not only to reduce our environmental impact but also to enhance long-term business resilience, innovation and competitiveness.

VIOLATION OF POLICY

POLICY REVIEW

This Policy is subject to regular periodic review.

We are committed to maintaining an effective and forward-looking Energy and Climate Policy that not only fulfills legal requirements but also positions Aluminij as a regional leader in sustainability and responsible energy management.
