Aluminium Stewardship Initiative has successfully acknowledged HMT Höfer Metall Technik GmbH & Co. KG (HMT) with Performance Standard V3 (2022) Certification for responsibly producing low-carbon emission aluminium profiles.
Part of the Höfer group, HMT is a Germany-based, high-tech aluminium extrusion plant that manufactures semi-finished aluminium products. The extrusion plant is specialised in producing aluminium profiles. It produces up to thirty tonnes of aluminium billets daily, leveraging two fully automatic extrusion lines. The facility's processes include sawing, stamping, drilling, milling, and joining, with products serving the automotive and construction industries, amongst other sectors.
HMT's commitment to responsible production was put to the test through a rigorous, independent, third-party audit by TÜV Rheinland Cert GmbH.
HMT first joined ASI in September 2023 as a production and transformation member.
Fiona Solomon, Chief Executive Officer of the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative, said: "We congratulate HMT Höfer Metall Technik GmbH & Co. KG on achieving Performance Standard Certification V3 (2022). This Certification recognises the company's efforts to implement an industry-leading set of environmental, social, and governance performance criteria at its operations. The Certification also provides a structured approach for the company to evaluate and improve their sustainability practices on an ongoing basis."
