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.

CIAL report claims Italy recycled 73.6% aluminium packaging waste last year

EDITED BY : MAYURAKSHI GANGULY 2MINS READ

During their annual meeting in Milan on May 12th, the National Aluminium Packaging Consortium (CIAL), a non-profit organization in Italy, shared the impressive results of their waste management model for recycling aluminium packaging.

The waste management programme aligns with the European Green Deal's new Circular Economy Action Plan observations. CIAL reported that a gigantic 73.6% of aluminium packaging waste was successfully recycled in the previous year, surpassing Italy's recycling targets for 2025 (50%) and 2030 (60%). If energy recovery was included, this percentage increased to an even more astounding 78%.

The president of CIAL, Carmine Bruno Rea, mentioned: "For aluminium packaging, 'disposable' is an almost outdated concept, while 'use and recycle' is increasingly widespread."

"The 'single-use' concept, generically associated with the packaging sector, does not suit packaging made with aluminium, a material that is infinitely recyclable by nature," he attested.

Italy's recycling system has proven to be highly efficient, with the recycling rate of aluminium beverage cans reaching a remarkable 91.6% in 2022.

Bruno Rea exemplified: "Aluminium is easy to recycle, and in Italy, we do it well."

"It is the ideal material for producing packaging (beverage cans, tins, aerosol cans, trays, coffee capsules, etcetera) because it is light, malleable, resistant to impact and corrosion and because it guarantees a barrier effect against light, air, humidity and bacteria, in line with the standards required in the food and beverage sectors for long and safe food conservation," he added.

This achievement surpasses the European average of 73% and rivals other nations' deposit-refund systems. As we have previously witnessed the Governments of Scotland, Netherlands and Ireland discussing issues related to the DRS, it is surprising to see another European country emerging as a recycling head globally.

"Aluminium packaging is increasingly consistent with the principles of prevention and the socio-economic development models of the Green Economy," Rea rested his case.
