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.

Zahit Aluminium has commissioned a new 12-inch, 47-MN extrusion press at its production facility in Andana, Turkey. The company said the press has been operating successfully for several months, delivering stable performance and reliable production of aluminium profiles for structural, architectural, framing and photovoltaic applications.

The extrusion press was supplied by Italy-based Danieli Breda and is equipped with isothermal extrusion technology to maintain controlled temperatures at the press exit and ensure consistent product quality throughout the production process.

The new press processes 1,500 mm billets with dead-cycle times of less than 17 seconds, including the burp cycle. It also incorporates Danieli Breda's ESED 4.0 energy-saving system, which helps reduce electricity consumption during operation.

The installation includes an advanced automation system integrated with an IBA data acquisition and analysis platform for production monitoring and process optimisation. Operations are also supported by an industrial tablet used alongside the standard control panel, improving equipment control, maintenance management and remote assistance.

According to the company, the new extrusion line combines stable production, lower energy consumption and advanced automation while supporting the manufacture of a broad range of aluminium profiles for different industrial applications.

Zahit Aluminium was established by Zahit Balbay in 1983 as Turkey's first window and door joinery workshop. The company expanded into aluminium extrusion in 1998 and added new production and surface treatment lines in the early 2000s to increase capacity and improve product quality. It now exports to 35 countries across four continents through its network of stores and dealers.

As part of its ongoing expansion programme, Zahit Aluminium has placed an order with Danieli Breda for a second extrusion press. The new press is expected to be installed in the coming months and will further increase production capacity at the Andana facility.
