Safety & Health

Our people are the true ambassadors of DRI Rubber and are our main asset. By systematically understanding the root causes of accidents and implementing proactive hazard management which includes safety training and education, DRI aims to not only reduce the probability of incidents but also strengthen our overall safety culture. This approach fosters a continuous improvement mindset, emphasizing the importance of learning from past incidents to prevent future ones, keeping people both physically and psychosocially safe

Quality

DRI is committed to delivering high-quality products and excellent customer service, while remaining flexible to the needs of both customers and suppliers. Quality assurance is key to our success and is maintained from supplier to customer. Our main focus is to create added value, develop materials, processes and solutions based on upcycling rubber waste streams and reprocessing compounds. To enhance efficiency, we train our employees with the “lean and change” principle.

Sustainability

Through our innovative ‘waste-to-product’ process, we provide a superior circular alternative for customers and suppliers by achieving end-of-waste, prolonging product life cycles, minimizing prime material usage, and reducing the ecological footprint. We maintain delivery reliability through our flexible approach, supporting and promoting sustainable business practices. DRI also strives to reduce our carbon footprint by minimizing our waste and responsible use of energy sources. By sharing performance data with our stakeholders, we create sustainability awareness within the entire supply chain and encourage positive action toward a more sustainable future.

Compliance

For us compliance reflects a commitment to meeting the expectations of customers, suppliers and regulators while carefully managing risks, anticipating issues, and considering environmental impacts. We believe in a proactive approach, focusing on continuous improvement and adapting to changing markets, innovations and environmental challenges. In order to reach our objective and goals, DRI works with a management system according to the NEN-EN-ISO 9001 and 14001 standards. This system is assessed regularly by internal and external audits.
