>90% of aluminium contained in a scrapped vehicle can be recycled.
Unlike other materials, aluminum is fully recyclable, meaning it has the potential to endure endless vehicle lifecycles. In fact, more than 90% of a vehicle’s aluminum can be recovered and recycled, creating a highly sustainable path forward. Its impact is profound: changing the equation for a vehicle’s end of life, and dramatically reducing a vehicle’s environmental footprint. In other words, the more aluminum is used in vehicles today, the less new material we’ll need to mine tomorrow.
40% reduction in weight vs. steel
The true impact of aluminum can be found in its daily use. By using aluminum, a vehicle’s weight can be reduced by up to 40% when compared to steel — simply a game changer for the reduction of fuel consumption and resulting CO2 emissions. All without compromising design, function, safety, or strength. Already, it’s being embraced by the world’s most visionary manufacturers, makers of EV vehicles, and those planning to increase technology without sacrificing weight.
