Criticality Assessment
of Raw Materials

Companies that depend on mineral resources and metals for their products and services can face a variety of risks throughout their value chain. These risks may arise from geological, geopolitical, economic, technical, social or environmental factors .

We offer a study of the criticality of raw materials specific to your company. This assessment helps identify the critical points in the value chain that may lead to supply disruptions, price fluctuations, or risks related to environmental and social regulations. Our experts also assist you in developing strategies to mitigate these risks.

Why conduct a raw materials criticality assessment?

To understand critical materials and the constantly evolving environmental and social requirements.

Predict price fluctuations and manage budgets more effectively.

To anticipate the risk of shortages that could disrupt production.

To implement strategies to secure supply chains and protect the business.

WeLOOP is a partner of the IRTC project, established in 2018 and funded by EIT RawMaterials.

The International Round Table on Materials Criticality is composed of leading international experts in material criticality who discuss various perspectives and requirements of criticality assessments, the impacts of criticality, and ways to mitigate it. The project bridges academic expertise, industrial practice, and policy development, and engages with stakeholders worldwide.
