We invest in renewable energy sources

In 2021, we installed 218 solar panels of a total power of 50kw in our offices in Efkarpia, Thessaloniki. This type of energy helps us reduce our carbon footprint (CO2) by approximately 35 tons per year.

In addition, from 2014, we have installed a solar power plant in the company’s foundry in Kilkis, saving 747 tons of carbon dioxide emissions.

Circular economy and energy conservation

For more than a decade, we have taken actions that not only promote recycling (of raw material, water etc.) in our production process but also significantly contribute to the energy conservation as well as to the consolidation of a sustainable model, based on the sustainability principles.

The key goal of all these actions is to reduce energy consumption and produce “green” aluminium, which we are already achieving.
