Sustainability - Recycling

The aluminium economy is a circular economy. For most aluminium products, the metal is not actually consumed during the product's lifetime, but simply used with the potential to be used again through recycling. Aluminium can be recycled again and again without any loss of its inherent properties, since its atomic structure is not altered during melting. Therefore, the life cycle of an aluminium product is not the traditional "cradle-to-grave" sequence, but rather a renewable "cradle-to-cradle".
