Our performance scorecard

Our performance scorecard provides an overview of how we have delivered in the year and tracks and reports how we create value through the use of our manufactured capital. It shows our progress against several Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that are linked to the delivery of our strategy to create value for our stakeholders.

KPI    2018 Target    Performance 
Sales volume    Sales volume in excess of
240 000 tons per annum 		   Risk mitigation systems continue to be effective and plant reliability stable. Consequently another record year of sales volumes, 245 000 tons for the group (and a record
228 000 tons for Rolled Products), was achieved. 
Rolled Products
production volume 		   Rolled Products production volumes in excess of 215 000 tons per annum    Rolled Products built on the strong manufacturing performance delivered in the prior year as the plant continued its strong performance. Rolled Products again achieved record production levels of 223 000 tons in the current year. 
Overall Yield    Yields greater than 67%    Yields continue to remain stable as manufacturing performance remains reliable due to the implementation of appropriate asset life cycle planning. 
Rolled Products conversion
cost per ton (index)		   Managed cost increases    The group continues to drive cost saving initiatives
to minimise the cost base. 
USD/ton rolling margin (index)   Increasing average margins    Rolling margins showed improvement on the prior year as Hulamin finds benefits from the anti-dumping and countervailing duties imposed by the USA on China. 
Scrap as % of metal input    12% of metal requirements    Scrap inputs remain largely consistent with the prior year although lower sales of can body stock in the local market. 
Energy consumption intensity
(GJ/MT production)		   Constant or decreasing
metric ton produced 		   The group continues to put in place measures to lower energy consumption intensity. The group’s energy consumption consists of fuel gases (61%), electricity (35%) and liquid fuels (4%). Specific actions to reduce our energy consumption is available in our sustainability report available at
www.hulamin.co.za. 
Carbon emissions intensity
(MT CO2/MT production)		   Constant or decreasing
metric ton produced 		   The group converted a number of furnaces to natural gas with 2018 being the first full year with a new energy mix. The change in the energy mix had a positive effect on GHC emissions as natural gas has a lower carbon footprint than LPG. 
Water consumption intensity
(Kℓ/MT production)		   Constant or decreasing
metric ton produced 		   The group continues to find ways to decrease water consumption. The objective is to migrate to an automated water management system to allow better understanding of water consumption trends so that future reduction opportunities are identified. Further information on Hulamin’s water reduction efforts is available in our Sustainability Report available at www.hulamin.co.za. 
Lost time frequency injury rate    <0,18    Hulamin continues to monitor high-pontial hazards and incidents that caused injuries from them and improve safety behaviour and conditions. Further information on our safety interventions can be found in our Sustainability Report which is available at www.hulamin.co.za
