RUSAL has won the InnoESG Prize 2020 for improving the world through its sustainability initiatives. The company has received the award for the second time in a row.

Oleg Mukhamedshin, RUSAL’s Director for Strategy, Business Development and Financial Market, said: “This award highlights the importance of our sustainable business model and the Company’s commitments to social engagement and philanthropy, all of which continue to play an integral part in RUSAL’s corporate strategy. For over 20 years, our ambitions both to improve the quality of life for local people in the regions in which we operate, and protect the environment, have been at the heart of RUSAL’s business plan and now as we look to the future these goals remain steadfast.”

InnoESG Prize is designed to recognise companies that have both innovatively reformed their core business to incorporate best practice ESG steps and simultaneously maintained high community engagement via business philanthropy.

The InnoESG Prize is organised by the Society Next Foundation, UNESCO HK Global Pease Center, Lions Club HKIFC, Rotarian Action Group for Peace, and the Wofoo Social Enterprise.

RUSAL’s production of low carbon aluminium under the ALLOW brand and the business’ focus on sustainability makes the Company one of the ESG leaders in the metals industry.
