Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) announced on May 28 that Hydro’s Primary Aluminium operations in Luxembourg and Norway were successfully certified against the ASI Performance Standard. With this certification of the Primary Aluminium sites, Hydro won ASI certification for its 13 production sites including primary metal, smelting/re-melting, casting, extruding and rolling. The producer now boosts the most ASI Performance Standard certified operations of the ASI membership.

Commenting on the certification, Fiona Solomon, Chief Executive Officer at ASI said “Hydro has been a driving force within the ASI since our initial development stages and continues to play an important role in the implementation phase, not only in its demonstrated commitment to certify its operations, but also in its ongoing engagement in ASI’s standards development and governance activities.”

Pål Kildemo, Head of Primary Metal in Hydro, says “I am very happy about five of Hydro’s Primary Metal plants now being certified according to ASI’s Performance Standard, an important verification that our aluminium is produced by high standards, responsibly and sustainably. We see a strategic fit between our sustainability agenda and our commercial agenda, and the ASI certification as an important step on the way.”

The ASI Certification program is a voluntary sustainability standard initiative for the global aluminium value chain. The program was developed through an extensive multi-stakeholder consultation process over last few years. The independent, third-party audits of Hydro’s Primary Metal operations were carried out by DNV GL.
