OUR VALUES
IMBS subscribes to the Triple Bottom Line (3BL) philosophy which states that to be successful a company needs to take into account the community it operates in, its impact on the environment as well as its economic prosperity. With this at the core of our value system we aim to ensure IMBS's sustainability.
Customer Focus
Through our flexibility and innovation, we will where possible tailor-make products suited to specific customer requirements. This will enable us to become a preferred supplier on a long-term, mutually beneficial basis.
High Value in-use Product
Our innovative Finesmelt™ technology allows us to produce a range of metallic iron units which will enable iron ore producers to diversify their customer base and enable end-users to optimise their existing processes.
The Community
We recognise that community development and involvement is core to the success of IMBS. As we will be working in economically disadvantaged areas our policy will be to look to assist the community. We aim to do this by providing training and capital thereby providing support services. This will create employment and increasing economic activity within the community.
The Environment
An important proponent of our company policy is to comply with the environmental regulations in accordance with South African legislation.
The nature of the Finesmelt™ process is such that it has significant environmental benefits over traditional iron and steel making processes such as:
- The rehabilitation and eradication of waste dumps
- Optimising energy recovery and utilisation
