European aluminum and metal packaging companies have developed a joint road map to achieve 100% recycling of aluminum beverage cans by 2030. Aluminum beverage cans will realize the full potential of aluminum as a leader in circular economy in the next decade.

The roadmap was released at the webinar on the 24th. It is jointly organized by two associations with the participation of more than 200 stakeholders.
