Recyclability

-

Manufacturer guidance

Aluminium is one of the most recycled materials on Earth and can be recycled endlessly into itself. It is 100% recyclable and retains its properties indefinitely.



Recycled content

As defined in clause 7.8 of BS EN ISO 14021

-

Manufacturer guidance

Due to the global limited availability of recycled aluminium, the objective to increase recycled content to 75% doesn't have any environmental benefit. Increasing recycled content for 1 project or product only means other projects/products contain less. 

However, Reynaers Aluminium works closely together with its suppliers to ensure a correct % of recycled content. As there is a variation between the recycled content provided by these suppliers, we communicate the annual averages. 

 

For specific projects, Reynaers Aluminium can select a supplier with high recycled content, possibly with price impact and extended delivery times. 

 

​To improve the environmental impact of aluminium, Reynaers Aluminium focusses on following important aspects:

  • Use recycled content: work together with suppliers to ensure the use of recycled content.  
  • Purchase low carbon primary aluminium: decrease the CO2 impact of the primary aluminium, which is necessary to produce extrusion billets, by using low carbon primary aluminium, produced by green electricity (primarily hydro power). 
  • Work closely together with European Aluminium to improve the global impact of aluminium production and improve sorting and recycling.

This approach has the most impact as it combines short term with long term improvements of the aluminium industry, to make a clear environmental shift.
