The leading Austrian manufacturer of premium quality aluminium cast and flat-rolled products, AMAG that supplies to highly diversified industries such as the automotive, aircraft, sports equipment, lighting, mechanical engineering, construction and packaging industries, has shipped the first aluminium which is certified following the international Chain of Custody standard of the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) to the Audi plant in Neckarsulm, Germany.
The shipped material that produced under strict sustainability standard is used for the outer body sheet of the A6 Avant tailgate. However, for AMAG, this order not only portrays its first-ever sale of ASI-certified materials but also symbolises the company’s debut as a supplier of outer body sheets for this model series.
The ASI Chain of Custody standard explicates the requirements for creating a responsible aluminium supply chain. This covers every step of the value creation process – from the production of bauxite, or secondary aluminium through processing in the foundry and rolling mill, to the finished product. ASI certification confirms that both the primary and secondary aluminium used by AMAG and the company’s internal processes meet the high sustainability requirements set out by the standard.
Gerald Mayer, CEO, AMAG, said: "I am delighted for this opportunity to intensify our cooperation with Audi with AMAG aluminium produced according to proven sustainability standards. AMAG has been committed to the resource-efficient production of recycled aluminium for many years. This commitment has been enhanced by our recent certification in accordance with ASI standards.”
