Waste reduction and management

We strive to reduce the amount of waste we generate and prevent such waste from going into landfills either through reuse or recycling. When reuse or recycling is not possible, we apply controls and treatment technologies to prevent human health effects and minimise the environmental impacts of disposal. In our production facilities, aluminium, which is infinitely recyclable and circular in nature, represents the vast majority of our incoming materials. The use of this substrates and other materials, such as recyclable cardboard and paper, helps mitigate the waste-related impacts of our organisation, including waste generated in our own activities and downstream. Significant effort is made across our global production facilities to capture, recover and recycle nearly 100% of our metal waste.
