Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) today announced that TAHA International B.V. has been certified against the ASI Performance Standard V3 (2022). The facility processes aluminium dross using a two-stage recovery process that aims to maximise the recovery of metal for primary producers and downstream smelters.
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 (2022) 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.
The independent, third-party audit of the TAHA International B.V. facility was carried out by CETIZION Verifica. A full listing of audit findings outlining evidence of conformances and minor non-conformances is available from page 5 of the summary audit report, linked below.
