About the product

Aluminium is the world's second most used metal. It is a global commodity driving the industry to adopt a global approach to sustainable development issues through its international body, the International Aluminium Institute (IAI). The aluminium industry has a number of elements in its current environment, health and safety programmes, which would enable it to become a pioneer in the field of global industrial reporting on sustainable development. This report provides a complete understanding of the positive and negative contributions that aluminium makes to environmental and economic well-being of the world’s population during the entire ‘life-cycle’ of the material.
