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.

ALUMIL gets more Green!
ALUMIL’s history is full of innovation and creativity. Love and respect for the environment are always present at every step of the company. This year, amid a very tough period worldwide due to COVID-19 virus - apart from our actions against Coronavirus spread - we decided to go further on our ecological agenda.
Thus, we created ALUMIL Green Ambassadors, a team of employees with mission to protect the environment and raise awareness about green and ecological issues. After the first web meeting among team members , the plan of actions that was defined includes: awareness campaigns for the company staff, upgrade of workspace aiming to reduce the energy footprint, activities for urban redevelopment and also, seminars in collaboration with scientists or people/organizations with eco activities.
The environment plays key role in our society’s structure and its protection will determine life on our planet for generations to come. The creation of Green Ambassadors voluntary team, is ALUMIL’s statement, indicating the significance of environmental issues regarding the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility policy.
Stay tuned for our next Green projects!
