In the evolving landscape of recycling, aluminium stands out as a material with immense potential. Its ability to be recycled infinitely without degrading quality makes it a valuable resource in the circular economy. However, the efficiency of aluminium recycling hinges on the precision of sorting processes. Enter AI-powered robots, transforming how Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs) […]

Introduction Three important issues will be on the agenda of the aluminium industry today and in the coming period: flexibility, independence and sustainability. However, in order to follow this agenda, especially sustainability, or to achieve the goals on this agenda set for us, we need more metallic materials, especially aluminium. It is possible to define […]

The recent history of aluminium in the United States reads like an industrial paradox with a hint of irony. Tariffs on aluminium and other strategic metals were meant to protect the domestic industry and reindustrialise the country. The logic was sound: build a wall around the market, make foreign imports more expensive and give American […]

The urgency for sustainable processes is no longer breaking news. As a result, global demand for aluminium surges, driven by industrialisation, urbanisation, and EV-driven mobility. In Nigeria, Terra Aqua, one of the country’s largest recyclers, is advancing this transition with strategic support from Manufacturing Africa (MA), a UK government-funded initiative under the Foreign, Commonwealth & […]

Aluminium has long been prized for its lightweight, durable and infinitely recyclable nature. In today’s sustainability-driven marketplace, closed-loop recycling is transforming aluminium supply chains by reducing waste, cutting costs and advancing global climate goals. Unlike traditional recycling, which often leads to downcycling or material losses, closed-loop systems ensure aluminium scrap is reprocessed into products of […]

Aluminium is a material used in almost every industry and is on the list of critical raw materials in many developed countries. Aluminium as a critical raw material Aluminium is a key material for strategic industries, particularly defence, aviation and renewable energy. Primary aluminium production is an energy-intensive process. Almost half of global primary aluminium […]
