Recycling and circular economy of aluminum waste
Because of its chemical properties, aluminum is practically 100% recoverable. Because less than 10% of the energy is used for recycling than is required for production, this form of aluminum production is environmentally friendly. In our factories, we therefore ensure that aluminum residues from production are completely recycled. In this way, we also contribute to the fact that 52% of the aluminum produced in Europe already comes from the recycling route (as of 2017).
