RUSAL, a global leader in aluminium production, has advanced to the second phase in the production of a batch of rolling slabs with a record-low carbon footprint. The figure came to less than 3t CO2/t of aluminium (Full Scope), which is the company’s lowest ever recorded within its ongoing production operations. These ingots will be delivered to partners for further rolling into strips and manufacturing Russia’s first low-carbon aluminium beverage cans. Building on the successful launch of the initiative in June 2025, this milestone confirms the full industrial-scale operation of the Company’s sustainable manufacturing solutions. This latest phase has yielded a new batch of can body sheet slabs with a record-low carbon footprint. RUSAL will supply these slabs to partners for rolling into sheet metal and subsequent conversion into beverage cans, marking a significant step in decarbonising the packaging supply chain.
