9. Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) is key to evaluating the
environmental impact of aluminium products
Life-Cycle Assesment (LCA) is a
technique to assess the
environmental impacts of a given
product throughout its life, from
raw material extraction for the
original manufacturing process
through to its usage and end-of-
life.
It is a key tool for aluminium
which has impacts upstream and
brings benefits downstream.

13. Recycling aluminium makes economic and
environmental sense
 Recycling is a business imperative due to aluminium’s intrinsic economic
value as scrap.
 Aluminium can be endlessly melted down and recast with no loss of its
inherent properties or downgrade in material integrity.
=>No difference between aluminium made of scrap or virgin material!
 Creating new metal from recycled aluminium only requires 5% of the
energy needed to produce primary aluminium from bauxite ore.
=> Unique position of aluminium for primary versus secondary source
 Once collected and sorted, aluminium can be recycled and reused, avoiding
the use of primary metal and thus saving CO2 emissions.
13

14. Aluminium, a permanent material
 Permanent materials are not consumed, they are merely used.
 Permanent materials are moved from the ground or manufactured and used
in a range of applications and then “lent” to other applications after their
previous use.
 They can be recycled, over and over again, without loss of properties.
14
Comparison with other materials
■ Plastic and paper recycling damages
molecules / fibres
 Hence lowering properties
 These materials cannot be
infinitely recycled.
■ Glass can also be infinitely recycled, even
though it can also lose some properties
(colour, transparency).
Constellium is part of Metal
Packaging Europe which has
developed the permanent
material concept.

Improving scrap collection and sorting by working together

16. Recycling takes place at all three stages of the
aluminium life-cycle. End-of-life recycling is key
 Internal process scrap
created during transformation.
 Customer scrap produced
during stamping, milling and
other processes
Recycling the scrap produced
during all production stages is
essential due to its cleanliness
and value. As it goes throughout
the complete production flow, this
runaround scrap does not replace
primary metal and therefore its
usage does not avoid CO2
emissions.
16
 The end-of-life scrap from products
containing aluminium such as Used
Beverage Cans is a clear substitute for
primary metal, especially when recycling
it requires only 5% of the energy
otherwise used to produce primary
metal.
 End-of-life recycling therefore delivers
clear CO2 savings.
 End-of-life recycling is the most
efficient way to significantly
improve the CO2 footprint of
aluminium beverage cans.

17. The recycled content in a given product does not
reflect its environmental performance. Here is why.
1 2 3Recycled content
includes industry
process scrap and
the part of end of life
scrap versus process
scrap is rarely or never
mentioned!
Recycled content can
only work if there is
enough available
scrap, which is
essentially dependent
on scrap produced
many years ago
Increasing recycled
content of a product is
highly likely to happen
by decreasing the
recycled content of
another one!
17

18. Is increasing process scrap intake good for the planet?
NO! What matters is end of life scrap!

19. End-of-life scrap intake is limited by its availability
19
75% of the aluminium
ever produced is still
in use
Due to the long lifespan of most (especially
larger) aluminium applications such as
buildings and transport vehicles, the available
quantity of end-of-life aluminium scrap
today is limited to what was put on the
market many years ago.
Calling for higher recycled
content will not change

22. Recycled content may be a good marketing incentive to
recycle paper or plastic but is not suited for metal.
 Keeps same properties after recycling
 Cannot be distinguished from virgin metal
 Infinitely recyclable!
 Has value which pays for recycling
■ Loses its properties after recycling
■ Low value of scrap/high cost of recycling
Recycled content provides an incentive to
recycle and is not limited by unsorted
scrap availability
Recycled content is not the right incentive

25. Constellium aims to boost the overall sustainability
of our industry through end-of-life recycling
We make sure that as much aluminium as possible is re-used
at the end of the life of a product
25

26. Why improving collection and sorting?
 To improve recycling practices, the focus must shift to improving the
recycled scrap collection and sorting process as a whole.
 Once collected and sorted, scrap can be easily used in one product or
another.
 Good sorting enables an alloy to be recycled in the same alloy category,
thus avoiding dilution or down-cycling.
 This would increase the overall volume and quality of the available
content, rather than concentrating on the content of individual products.
 At Constellium, we believe that we can only achieve this through
collaboration and partnership with all relevant stakeholders, within and
outside the aluminium industry.

end-of-life recycling through industry-led programs
