Sustainability Report

It is truly amazing to find out that agencies are putting immense effort into exposing the youth to find essential qualities and applications of this 100% recyclable metal. It is imperative to raise awareness so that the next generation doesn't succumb to the mistakes of the past. Innovation is essential, but with it comes the responsibility to contain the side effects it causes. With the 2023 Aluminum Extrusion Design Competition, AEC has given the children a chance at a better future while securing the planet's future by promoting aluminium use.
