Securing reliable values with RJC-CoC certified recycled precious metals
This certificate translates into a transfer document that automatically accompanies each delivery of CoC recycled products. It is available for CoC recycled Gold, Silver, Platinum, and Palladium, and can only be issued when linked to physical CoC metal units refined by authorized sites within Umicore Business Unit JIM.
The Responsible Jewellery Council, London, (RJC) is the world’s leading sustainability standard setting organisation for the jewelry and watch industry. JIM’s headquarters Agosi and sites have been granted the CoC Certificate for a conflict-free supply chain of precious metals resulting in recycled CoC-products for the pm consuming industries.
Given the restrictions set for eligible recycled materials, as defined by the RJC standard, the RJC-CoC certificate provides the best possible transparency for recycled precious metals we can offer.
It requires a strict segregation process for the entire recycling and production set up for CoC products. Within these isolated streams, eligible CoC materials from different sources are mixed as they share the same defined standard.
The RJC-CoC certificate is represented by the CoC-transfer document that is delivered with every CoC-product offered by Umicore JIM, using the RJC definition of recycled material.
KPMG has been appointed to audit and certify JIM’s RJC-CoC compliance.
