Sustainability strategy with a clear roadmap to zero
To reduce our own emissions and to help our partners improve the sustainability impact of their products, we have a clear sustainability strategy in place.
Hydro Sustainability Strategy
We want to contribute to creating a fair society and circular economy by producing responsibly, delivering circular solutions, making net-zero aluminium by 2050 or earlier, and producing and using more renewable energy.
Hydro Path to zero Strategy
We are developing zero-carbon greener aluminium to meet market expectations and enable customers to reduce their carbon footprint.
Responsibility, traceability & transparency in the supply chain
Having a full value chain ASI certification in the aluminium industry, shows responsibility to our customers on all ESG topics and Chain of Custody. We also provide full transparency on the footprint of our products through Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPD).
Aluminium Stewardship Initiative
Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI)
The ASI standards ensure that sustainability and human rights principles are increasingly embedded at every stage of the aluminium value chain.
EPD / LCA
Our Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) give insight in the environmental performance of our products.
More sustainable aluminium
Hydro is pushing the boundaries for low carbon aluminium and use of post- and pre- consumer scrap to create recycled alloys and products helping our customers on the path to zero emissions. We offer certified aluminium products with a transparent footprint.
Hydro Low-carbon Aluminium
Hydro’s low-carbon aluminium products are designed to help you on your way to reach your sustainability goals and meet the demands of ever more climate-conscious consumers.
Hydro Recycled Aluminium
Hydro’s recycled aluminium products fit the circular economy and reduce the need of primary raw materials.
Recycled Low-Carbon Aluminium
Hydro’s recycled low-carbon aluminium products respond to the demand for aluminium with both high recycled content and a low-carbon footprint.
Designing for a circular economy
Sustainability starts at the design table. Hydro EcoDesign helps to improve profile design to reduce the total environmental impact of products. It also supports the disassembly End-of-Life to enhance keeping materials in the loop.
Hydro EcoDesign
Hydro EcoDesign can help you make products with increased functionality and a smaller environmental footprint.
Hydro Closing the Loop
By closing the loop together with both aluminium pre-consumer scrap and post-consumer scrap, we contribute to a circular economy.
Sharing expertise & knowledge
By sharing our expertise & knowledge in the field of sustainability related to aluminium, we can contribute to make the aluminium value chain more sustainable.
