Aluminium Stewardship Initiative has reportedly presented Performance Standard V2 (2017) Certification to Sanyuan Aluminium Co., Ltd. (Sanyuan Aluminium) for the processing of aluminium coil and sheet at its two plants Zouping Xinsanyuan Aluminium Co., Ltd. and Shandong Longkou Sanyuan Aluminium Co., Ltd.
The plants manufacture aluminium tab stock and end stock, with around 100,000 tonnes of output capacity. The products are destined for use in beverage and food aluminium can packaging.
On receiving the certification, Sanyuan Aluminium said, “Forge ahead and be extraordinary’ is our constant company motto, which reflects both our determination to build a strong business and our perseverance in facing all kinds of difficulties. We continue to stick to this concept in our pursuit of sustainability, including reducing our carbon footprint through the use of recycled aluminium. Therefore, it means a lot to us to achieve the ASI Performance Standard certification. It proved our strong commitment to the concept of a circular economy and our desire for a climate–neutral future. We are very willing to make the continuous development concept into specific actions. We have worked and will continue to work to ensure that we create a better society and maintain ecological balance while protecting the environment.”
Fiona Solomon, Chief Executive Officer at ASI, said: “We congratulate Sanyuan Aluminium for achieving Performance Standard Certification at two of its subsidiary coil and sheet processing plants in Zhuhai, Shandong Province, China. The Performance Standard provides a roadmap to guide improvements in performance for a range of ESG issues, and the company’s ASI Certification is an important step in the journey towards the implementation of more responsible production approaches.”
