This initiative gathers industry leaders, producers, and transformers from all aluminium-consuming market segments to work together and implement a 2030 roadmap of projects to ensure that the consumption and production of aluminium meet the growing needs of society while driving towards net zero carbon and meeting broader sustainability challenges highlighted in the UN Sustainable Development Goals, such as social inequality, biodiversity loss, access to fresh water, and circularity.
It builds on IAI’s 50 years of progressing sustainable production and use of aluminium through collaborative projects on the management of wastes, reduction of pollution, and improving health outcomes for workers, communities and consumers; and credible, transparent data, and comprehensive analysis.
Aluminium Forward 2030 will initiate projects that improve performance relevant to other initiatives such as the First Movers Coalition, Mission Possible Platform and the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative.
Let’s build a future of aluminium together – a future that is zero carbon, circular, inclusive and collaborative.
Aluminium’s power is in its versatility. From transforming transport and shaping smart cities to offering infinite recyclability, discover everything there is to know about this resourceful metal.
...Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology could be a key pillar in achieving full decarbonisation of aluminium smelting, according to a new report from AFRY commissioned by the International Aluminium Institute (IAI). The comprehensive study, which examines the technical and economic feasibility of retrofitting CCS technology to existing aluminium potlines, ...
This study builds upon Eunomia’s previous studies into materials decarbonisation pathways. The scope of this report is focused on aluminium in comparison to four competing materials— steel, copper, container glass, PVC —taken from the perspective of their global value chains. The analysis looks at the Net Zero pathways that are ...
Aluminium cans are more than just convenient beverage containers. They represent a critical opportunity for sustainable resource management in the United States. Increasing the recycling rates of aluminium cans is paramount for multiple environmental and economic reasons. Recycling reduces carbon emissions and energy consumption, and enhances the production of low-carbon ...
