25 August 2026
Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) today announced that Nemak Wernigerode GmbH has been certified against the ASI Performance Standard V3.1 (2023). The facility produces aluminium components for the automotive industry using core package systems with gravity and GSPM casting, followed by heat treatment, machining and assembly.
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 V3 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 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 Nemak Wernigerode GmbH was carried out by TÜV Rheinland Cert GmbH. A full listing of audit findings is available in the summary audit reports, linked below. Four minor non-conformances were identified during the audit under the Criteria 2.3b Environmental and Social Management Systems – Social, 6.8a-d Dross, 7.2a-e Water Management and 11.1a Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) Management System. Nemak Wernigerode GmbH will be implementing corrective actions, to be verified in a follow-up audit.
