Product stewardship

Product stewardship involves improving the contribution that our products make to society by increasing their value and reducing the impacts of their supply and use.  This includes providing product choice, increasing their value to customers and managing impacts along all of the supply chain.

It is important for the long term value of our business to understand threats and opportunities in the market, as well engage with key stakeholders including customers, suppliers, regulators and communities.

Product stewardship activities carried out by RTCA include:

  • Actively researching and promoting technologies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the use of coal, such as clean coal
  • Energy management at our operations, projects and in the supply chain
  • Engaging with our customers and suppliers to identify opportunities and to assess and manage risks associated with our products and operations
  • Business improvement in key areas, including marketing, asset management, coal mining and processing.
