It has been a year of progress on many
fronts, and this report highlights some of the2018 activities in our much broader sustainability
journey — enhancing the transparency andsustainability of our supply chain, creating new
programs to drive performance, continuing tocollaborate with stakeholders, and launchingrefreshed values and a new purpose. I am proudof the progress we have made on these fronts
as well as the early achievement of our carbon
emission reduction and sustainable sourcing

2018 Safety Performance
In 2018, Ingredion was pleased to achieve our second-best employee safety
performance. While we started off the year with a slightly higher number of
injuries, improved performance from July through December helped deliver overall
improvement in results. Our 2018 Lost Time Incidence Rate was 0.09. While thiswas slightly higher than our aspirations, we did see an overall 10% reduction in lost
workday rate. This shows that progress was made in both reducing injury severity, as
well as managing employees back to work. We are pleased that our efforts continue
to drive year-on-year progress toward our 2020 targets.

Information Technology and Cybersecurity
To better enable our employees to protect the data assets of our organization, Ingredion
conducted information technology and cybersecurity training across our operationsin 2018. This training helped educate employees on topics such as email scams,
threats like phishing and how to recognize attempts to secure sensitive information.
Maintaining the integrity of our sensitive business information, as well as the information of organizations with which we do business, is a priority for Ingredion.

2018 Actual: 79%

In 2017, we reported that 85% of our global workforce was trained in
Lean Six Sigma. In 2018, we undertook activities to further refine ournumbers by removing duplicates of people who went through multiple
training, employees no longer with the company, non-employee
contractors included in the training numbers and increased employee
headcount from acquisitions.

North American Skills Training
As part of our strategy to develop employees at all levels and lead to growth,
Ingredion delivered professional skills training to more than 500 employees
in North America over the course of 2018. The training occurred in 34 classes
that were held in six cities throughout the US and Canada. This training
focused on topics such as effective communication, personal breakthroughs,

Ingredion continues to see increased interest from our customers looking to purchase products

particularly millennials, value brand transparency. They want to know where their products comefrom and if they are made ethically and with respect for the planet. We utilize the Sustainable
Agriculture Initiative Platform (SAI Platform), a benchmarking program, to assess our growers
globally. This program enables us to collaborate with growers and evaluate their farming practices

To assess our operations, as well as to meet the growing expectations of our customers to validate
the ethical operations of their suppliers, Ingredion continues to conduct SMETA audits of ourmanufacturing sites. In 2018, we worked with Bureau Veritas to execute on these audits, which weare currently conducting every three years, or more frequently in some instances when requested
by our customers. While many Ingredion facilities achieved zero recommendations from their audits,of those that did receive recommendations, the most common findings in 2018 were as follows:

Additional Comments

Exceeding 60-hour work week

Ingredion follows local laws with regard to working
hours. Additionally, we may have collective bargaining
agreements in place that allow for voluntary overtime
selection by employees. We also track safety statistics
to confirm that working hours are not contributing toworkplace injuries.

Working more than six consecutive
days without a day off

Ingredion follows local laws with regard toconsecutive work days between days off. The numberof days worked in a row is determined by local labor
laws, collective bargaining agreements and safety
considerations.

2018 Actual: 66%

Progressing Our Efforts
Ingredion continues efforts to fold our newly acquired facilities into our social
accountability processes, including third-party Sedex Member Ethical Trade Audits(SMETA). A few of these acquired facilities still need to be audited but are now
being included in the total percentage, accounting for the drop from the 100%reported last year.
We continue to work with our key suppliers to have them register in Sedex andundergo four-pillar SMETA audits. While this process continues to progress, thenumber of companies requiring SMETA audits in their supply chain continues toincrease, impacting the market and slowing progress for some suppliers looking toconduct audits. We will continue to pursue these audits with our key suppliers, as
we believe they are a critical step toward maintaining ethical supply chains.

Social Accountability Management System
In 2018, we implemented a Social Accountability Management System (SAMS) tofurther enhance our human rights practices across the organization. The SAMS not
only outlines how our manufacturing sites address updates in Sedex and respond to
SMETA audits, but also introduces guidance for how we address considerations suchas the rights of indigenous people in the geographies where we operate. Already wehave seen the SAMS clarify our practices with external auditors, thereby leading to
reduced findings and less need for follow-up audits.

Local Land Rights
While Ingredion’s operations do not often interact with indigenous
populations, we are aware that an increasing number of our customers
are focused on making certain their
supply chains do not have a negative
impact on the rights of indigenous
populations. For this reason, we included
consideration of indigenous peoples into

Consumer Trends
We continue to look at market trends as a means to better understand theintersection of sustainability and consumer choice. Consumers identify withsustainability, which helps us connect our customers with on-trend innovationsuch as organic, non-GMO, clean label and locally sourced products.

“We utilize initiatives like the UN Sustainable
Development Goals to better understand thefuture needs of society. This information,
when combined with our market research,helps us differentiate between short-term
consumer trends and longer-term societal
trends. For example, the world’s growing
population base will be hard pressed toconsume animal protein the way we do here
in the US. Therefore, the growing focus onplant protein is a societal need that we see
extending long into the future.”– Brian Nash

Certification Progress
Ingredion has continued to make progress on certification of our
microbiological labs to the ISO 17025 standard for pathogen testing.
All of the external quality labs Ingredion utilizes, and most of ourinternal labs, are now certified. The only exceptions are certain internal
laboratories located in South America that we anticipate will be certified
in 2019. These internal labs will continue to work with approved outsidelaboratory services until they are certified to ISO 17025.

Enhanced Quality Training
Quality and food safety continue to be an important focus for
Ingredion’s customers. Therefore, we launched Customer Contact
Foundations for Quality Managers training through the company’s
new e-learning platform. This training was designed to provide plantquality managers with additional skills and insights for customer
interactions and to further our customer experience efforts.

Peru Plant Provides Medical AccessTimely access to medical attention can be challenging in Peru, having an impact on
our business through factors such as employee absenteeism. Some of our employees
had to wait two months to see a doctor. The local Ingredion plant in Lima, Peru,
decided to do something about this, opening its Medical Attention Service Module.
The medical facility is open to Ingredion employees, their families and members of
the communities where we operate. With a focus on general medicine, nutrition,
pediatrics and gynecology, the facility has already had a profound impact. Ingredionis pleased to provide this service at no cost to the patients.

In October 2018, Ingredion’s Indianapolis plant hosted Career Success
Tours for the Future Farmers of America (FFA). The Ingredion tour
provided FFA members, who are mostly high school students, with ahands-on interactive approach to exploring the company’s products,

also providing information on the wide variety of career opportunities
available within the food ingredients industry.
