ASI certifies Impol 2000, d. d. against Performance Standard V3.1 and Chain of Custody V2
The Entity oversees production activities carried out by its subsidiaries, which include rolling mills, extrusion, casthouse, mechanical components, forged products, and slug production.
15 September 2025
Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) today announced that Impol 2000, d. d. has been certified against the ASI Performance Standard V3.1 and Chain of Custody Standard V2. As the parent company of the Impol Group, the Entity oversees production activities carried out by its subsidiaries, which include rolling mills, extrusion, casthouse, mechanical components, forged products, and slug production. Impol Group produces a wide range of aluminium products, including rolled products such as foils, strips, discs, sheets and plates; extruded products such as rods, bars, tubes, profiles and sections; cast products including billets and slabs; and finalised products such as components for battery housing systems, chassis systems and crash management systems. These products serve major sectors such as automotive, construction, packaging, and aerospace.
The ASI Certification program was developed through an extensive multi-stakeholder consultation process and is the only comprehensive voluntary sustainability standard initiative for the aluminium value chain. The ASI Performance Standard V3 and ASI CoC Standard V2 were launched in May 2022 following a multi-year revision process.
The ASI Performance Standard defines 11 principles and 62 criteria under three sustainability pillars – Environment, Social, and Governance – with the aim to address pressing sustainability issues in the aluminium value chain, such as biodiversity, Indigenous Peoples rights, circularity, and greenhouse gas emissions. The ASI CoC Standard sets out requirements for the creation of a Chain of Custody for material that is produced and processed through the value chain into diverse downstream sectors. The implementation of ASI’s CoC Standard links verified practices at successive steps of the supply chain – certified under the ASI Performance Standard – to the products produced by ASI Certified Entities. The CoC Standard also confirms that appropriate policies and due diligence process are in place to identify and address critical issues, such as corruption, human rights abuses, materials originating from conflict-affected and high-risk areas in the supply chain and support responsible sourcing. The 2022 Standards and related documents underwent a minor update in 2023, accounting for editorial changes, correction of minor errors and for general clarification, culminating in the release of Performance Standard V3.1 (2023) and Chain of Custody Standard V2.1 (2023).
The independent, third-party audit of Impol 2000, d. d. was carried out by Bureau Veritas Certification. A full listing of audit findings outlining evidence of conformances and minor non-conformances is available from page 5 in each of the summary audit reports, linked below. One minor non-conformance was noted during the Performance Standard Certification audit, under Criterion 5.1a-b Disclosure of GHG Emissions and Energy Use. During the Certification period, Impol 2000, d. d. will be implementing a corrective action plan, which will be verified in follow-up audits. No non-conformances were identified during the Chain of Custody Certification audit.
