Calculate Embedded Emissions for Unwrought Aluminium (HS7601)

Enter your input

Payable emissions (tCO₂e/t)

Total CBAM Cost (€)

Notes:
There may be a difference when calculating the price with respect to import volume, carbon price, and benchmark emissions, as the embedded formula may result in minor variations due to decimal rounding. Therefore, the actual value may vary.

CBAM is applicable to trade volumes starting from 50 metric tonnes. For trade volumes below 50 metric tonnes, CBAM does not apply.

Usage Procedure – How to use the CBAM Calculator Sheet

Enter or update values only in the INPUT
PARAMETERS section (Highlighted in blue) , including
the carbon price, benchmark emissions, CBAM
chargeable percentage (as per the phase-in year),
and imported quantity.

The system will automatically calculate the payable
emissions and the total CBAM cost (€) based on the
inputs provided.

Notes:
• Change any input value to automatically update CBAM cost.
• Formula used: Carbon price × payable emissions × quantity.
• Model aligned with CBAM supplier-side illustrative methodology.

Alucopanel & Alubond USA upgrade UAE facilities to produce more fire-resistant aluminium panels

EDITED BY : DIPANWITA GUPTA 2MINS READ

The UAE based Danube Group, manufacturer of the aluminium cladding range Alucopanel, has won the coveted deal of constructing the region's first A2-standard fire-resistant panel manufacturing factory beating another Indian company Mulk Holdings headquartered in the Middle East.

Mulk Holdings claimed in a release that they have also gained certification for their new A2 panels. But Danube Group, which produces the Alucopanel aluminium cladding range under licence in the Middle East from its factory in Dubai Technopark, said they will be the first to begin commercial production, scheduled for an early start this month.

Aluminium A2 Standard panels are being made compulsory under the UAE’s Fire & Life Safety Code following a series of fire hazards which shook the region early this year. The panels have a stone core, making them much less susceptible to igniting than many existing panels that have a polythene (LDPE) core. These have been highlighted as contributing towards a string of building fires in the UAE.

Alucopanel began trial production of aluminium A2 panels early last month. "After the launch is over, we can start commercially," said Zohaib Rahman, the division head of Alucopanel Middle East, part of Danube Group.

He updated that an extra production line has been to its factory in Technopark, which began operations last year. With two production lines operating in full swing presently, the plant is now capable of churning out up to 4 million square metres of A2 panels each year.

Meanwhile in Sharjah, Shaji Ul Mulk, the founder and chairman of Mulk Holdings, which produces Alubond USA aluminium cladding panels in the Emirate, has announced a US$50 million upgrade to its facility which will lead to it having three new lines capable of producing A2-standard panels.

Alubond USA also operates a factory in Turkey. With a per annum production capacity of 2 million sq metres of A2-rated aluminium panels, Alubond USA is currently well positioned to supply the UAE market showcasing a growing demand for aluminium structural systems.
