Better Health for All

Morgan Advanced Materials, a major manufacturer of seals for automated blood collection devices, operates under a common requirement for a zero failure rate for these products, which are produced in millions annually.

The company eliminated the use of Trichloroethylene (TCE), a known human carcinogen and hazardous air pollutant, from its manufacturing processes. However, the replacement, an aqueous mixture containing Borax, still poses some concern for respiratory and skin irritation and has a high concern for ecological hazards, which can have indirect health impacts. The company does not operate in the pharmaceutical, food, or addiction-prone industries, nor does it conduct clinical trials or manage health-related data, making several KPIs not applicable.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

No specific, quantifiable evidence was found in the provided articles to assess the company against the defined Key Performance Indicators for Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing. While policies such as a Supplier Code of Conduct

, Conflict Minerals policy , and Modern Slavery policy are mentioned, there is no data on the percentage of spend covered by fair-trade certifications, audit frequency for suppliers, number of forced or child labor incidents, median remediation speed, percentage of contracts with ethical clauses, share of spend on high-risk materials, or procurement budget directed to diverse suppliers. The claim of "Full traceability and control over the whole supply chain" for traceability coverage lacks the specific technological details (e.g., blockchain, GIS) required by the rubric's scoring tiers for 100% traceability, thus preventing a score assignment.

No War, No Weapons

In 2024, 6.7% of the company's revenue was derived from the Security and Defence market, which includes providing ceramic tiles for body and vehicle armour.

The Board receives updates on this market as part of strategic reviews. The company has confirmed through a review that 100% of the materials sourced for its products do not include conflict minerals, adhering to its Conflict Minerals Policy and the EU Conflict Minerals Regulation 2017/821, with ongoing review of their use in products and global supply chain.
