Henan Zhongfu High Precision Aluminium Products Co., Ltd, has achieved ASI Chain of Custody (CoC) Standard V2 (2022) Certification for its facility in Yulian Industrial Park, Zhanjie, Gongyi, Henan, China. The facility is responsible for the manufacture of aluminium alloy sheets, strips and foils, with production activities including re-melting, casting, hot rolling, cold rolling, coating, slitting, and oxidation processes.

Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) today announced that Henan Zhongfu High Precision Aluminium Products Co., Ltd, has been successfully certified against the ASI CoC Standard V2 (2022). The company achieved Performance Standard Certification for the facility in April 2021. The company’s products are widely used in packaging for fast-moving consumer goods such as beverage cans, aseptic packs, automotive lightweight materials and consumer electronics.

The ASI CoC Standard V2 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 materials produced by ASI Certified Entities. The CoC Standard also confirms that appropriate policies and due diligence processes 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 independent, third-party audit of the Henan Zhongfu High Precision Aluminium Products Co., Ltd, facility was carried out by SGS-CSTC Standards Technical Services. A full listing of audit findings outlining evidence of conformances and minor non-conformance is available from page 5 of the summary audit report, linked below. Eight minor non-conformances were noted under Criteria 4.2a Eligible Scrap (Pre-Consumer), 4.2b Eligible Scrap (Post-Consumer), 5.1c ASI Aluminium (Aluminium sourcing), 5.2 Unique Identification, 7.1a Responsible Sourcing Policy (Anti-corruption), 7.1b Responsible Sourcing Policy (Responsible sourcing), 7.1c Responsible Sourcing Policy (Human rights due diligence) and 7.1d Responsible Sourcing Policy (Conflict-affected and high-risk areas). Henan Zhongfu High Precision Aluminium Products Co., Ltd, will be implementing a corrective action plan, the implementation of which will be verified in follow-up audits.

This Certification demonstrates that the company is making progress on supply chain due diligence and provides a pathway for continuous improvement of its sustainability performance.”
