On Monday, July 19, Aluminium Stewardship Initiative has successfully certified REAL ALLOY against Performance Standard certification for recycling of aluminium scrap and production of recycled aluminium alloys at Deizisau, Germany plant, and at European Headquarters in Grevenbroich, Germany. The plant produces alloys to specification by converting aluminium scrap into molten metal delivered directly to customers’ foundries.

The ASI Performance Standard defines environmental, social, and governance principles and criteria, with the aim to address sustainability issues in the aluminium value chain. It sets out 59 criteria under the three sustainability pillars of Governance, Environment and Social, which address key issues such as biodiversity, Indigenous Peoples rights, and greenhouse gas emissions.
Fiona Solomon, Chief Executive Officer at ASI, said: “We warmly congratulate REAL ALLOY on their ASI Performance Standard certification. The REAL ALLOY plant’s furnaces enable it to recycle a wide range of scrap and makes it a valuable link in the circular economy bringing aluminium back into productive use. Achieving ASI Certification gives their customers the assurance that the plant’s production processes meet industry-leading sustainability criteria.”
Russell Barr, Executive Vice President and Managing Director, Europe, said: “We are proud to have achieved this first certification according to the ASI Performance Standard, especially since it includes not only our Deizisau site but also the central functions, policies and processes administered by our European HQ. Since we joined ASI, it has become more and more important for us to understand and properly manage our sustainability footprint. Preparing for and going through the audit was both challenging and inspiring. And we see it as another successful step on our to-be-continued sustainability journey.”
The independent, third-party audit of the REAL ALLOY plant and European Headquarters was carried out by TÜV Rheinland Cert GmbH.
