The company’s long-standing commitment to sustainability began in 2012 with the definition of an ambitious roadmap made of commitments and targets on four main pillars: development and manufacturing of sustainable products; safety and skill development; reduction of the environmental impact of operations; and conducting business responsibly with respect to governance and supply chain.
“The progress we continue to make is a proof of our commitment to sustainability. Every day, thanks to our people’s contributions and the cooperation with our external stakeholders, we make continuous advances on doing business responsibly and delivering sustainable products to the markets in which we operate,” said Ingrid Joerg, Chairwoman of the Constellium’s Sustainability Council and President of Constellium’s Aerospace and Transportation business unit.
Aluminium recycling is central to Constellium’s sustainability approach. Aluminium is infinitely recyclable without losing its properties and Constellium strives to make infinite recycling a reality. Constellium endorses the industry’s can recycling target for Europe of 75% and participates in the development and improvement of collection, sorting and recycling of beverage cans. Through the recent acquisition of Alabama-based Wise Metals, which recycles the equivalent of 14 billion cans per year, Constellium’s recycling capabilities have taken a new dimension on a global scale.
