UC RUSAL joins ASI
ASI is delighted to welcome UC RUSAL as a new member in the Production and Transformation membership class. RUSAL is a leading, global aluminium producer and operates in 19 countries on 5 continents. The company’s main products are primary aluminium, aluminium alloys, foil and alumina.
RUSAL is a completely vertically integrated aluminium company with assets right through the production process – from bauxite and nepheline ore mines to aluminium smelters and foil mills. The company’s core smelting capacities are located in Siberia, thus benefiting from the access to the renewable and environmentally clean hydropower.
“As one of the leading low carbon aluminium producers, RUSAL is happy to contribute to the development and implementation of a standard for aluminium stewardship across the aluminium value chain. Thanks to a combination of its unique properties, such as light weight, durability and resistance to corrosion, aluminium is widely recognized as one of the most sustainable materials in use today. Development of a standard that would be an international benchmark for procurement will significantly contribute to further sustainability improvement for the whole industry, making aluminium a metal of choice of the 21st century,” commented Vladislav Soloviev, CEO of RUSAL.
