PRESS RELEASE

2MINS READ

ASI certificate

Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) today announced that Shinhwa Auto USA Corp has been certified against the ASI Performance Standard V3.1 (2023). The facility operates as an aluminium alloy foundry and manufacturing site producing automotive components for the United States market.

Its activities include aluminium melting, low and high-pressure die casting, heat treatment, machining, assembly, inspection, warehousing, and shipping of drive, chassis, and body parts across three on-site plants, supported by ancillary infrastructure for logistics, storage, and site operations. Current annual production is approximately 800,000 saleable units for the domestic (US) market. 

The ASI Certification program was developed through an extensive multi-stakeholder consultation process and is the only comprehensive voluntary sustainability standard initiative for the aluminium value chain. The ASI Performance Standard V3 and ASI CoC Standard V2 were launched in May 2022 following a multi-year revision process.

The ASI Performance Standard V3 defines 11 principles and 62 criteria under three sustainability pillars – Environment, Social, and Governance – with the aim to address pressing sustainability issues in the aluminium value chain, such as biodiversity, Indigenous Peoples rights, circularity, and greenhouse gas emissions.

The 2022 Standards and related documents underwent a minor update in 2023, accounting for editorial changes, correction of minor errors and for general clarification, culminating in the release of Performance Standard V3.1 (2023) and Chain of Custody Standard V2.1 (2023). The independent, third-party audit of Shinhwa Auto USA Corp was carried out by DNV Business Assurance Services UK Ltd. A full listing of audit findings is available in the summary audit reports, linked below.

Four minor non-conformances were identified during the audit under the Criteria 4.4a-c Collection and Recycling of Products at End of Life - Material Conversion and other Manufacturing, 5.1a-b Disclosure of GHG Emissions and Energy Use, 5.3b-e GHG Emissions Reduction Plans - Targets, review and disclosure and 11.2 Employee engagement on Health and Safety. Shinhwa Auto USA Corp will be implementing corrective actions, to be verified in a follow-up audit.
