Rio Tinto firma un acuerdo de pellets biológicos por 5 años con SuperChar para reducir el uso de carbón en las refinerías de Gladstone

International Aluminium Institute (IAI) data show that around 420 billion aluminum beverage cans enter the global market each year. While about 71% are recycled, the current can-to-can recycling rate is only around 33%. At this rate, repeated recycling through 2050 could generate about 207 billion recycled cans, while raising the closed-loop rate to 62% through better UBC sorting, remelting and logistics could increase this to around 685 billion cans. IAI estimates that only 47% of recycled cans currently return to new cans, compared with a potential 87% using existing technology, highlighting significant room to strengthen closed-loop recycling.

Germany's building sector generated around 130,000 mt of aluminum scrap in 2023, according to a report by AUF and European Aluminum, with AUF's recycling network collecting approximately 75,000 mt. Aluminum scrap recycling rates in Germany are close to 100%, while around 70% of scrap from building products is processed and remelted domestically, mainly into secondary extrusion billets and rolling ingots. Approximately 83,700 mt was recycled back into new building products, supporting a closed-loop aluminum system in the construction sector.

Crown Holdings informó que el contenido promedio de aluminio reciclado en sus envases para bebidas alcanzó el 67% en 2025, con un total de compras de aluminio de aproximadamente 1,23 millones de toneladas métricas. La empresa aspira a elevar el contenido reciclado en las latas de aluminio para bebidas al 80% para 2030, y se compromete a obtener al menos el 10% de su compra anual de aluminio primario de productores con bajas emisiones de carbono para ese mismo año. La electricidad renovable representó el 44% de la combinación eléctrica global de Crown en 2025, mientras que las emisiones combinadas de Alcance 1 y 2 disminuyeron alrededor de un 30% con respecto al nivel de referencia de 2019.
