As a leading player in the local steel industry, Masteel is deeply committed to building and maintaining a sustainable, responsible, and ethical supply chain. This commitment is not only essential for ensuring an uninterrupted flow of high-quality materials but also for upholding stringent ESG standards across our operations and supplier network. Masteel actively encourages our suppliers to adopt sustainable and responsible business practices, reinforcing our collective role in driving environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and ethical governance. Furthermore, we place a strong emphasis on supporting the local economy, with 82% of our suppliers sourced locally and only 18% from international sources. This approach strengthens domestic industry resilience, enhances regional economic growth, and reduces carbon emissions associated with long-distance supply chains.

Since 2022, Masteel has integrated ESG assessments into its supplier and contractor due diligence framework, ensuring all partners meet strict environmental and ethical standards before engagement. This mandatory screening process, based on five key criteria, aligns suppliers with Masteel’s sustainability objectives, reinforcing responsible sourcing and minimising the environmental impact of steel manufacturing. By enforcing these measures, Masteel elevates industry standards, mitigates non-compliance risks, and fosters a transparent, ethical supply chain. Through these initiatives, we reaffirm our role as a corporate leader in sustainability, driving a greener, more responsible future while ensuring long-term supply chain integrity.
