A new report from Metal Packaging Europe and European Aluminium shows that the overall recycling rate for aluminium beverage cans in the European Union, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland remained stable at 76% (75.8%) in 2019. With can consumption on the rise, the total amount of aluminium recycled from cans reached a record level of 488,000 tonnes, representing a total saving of 4 million tonnes of CO\u2082 in greenhouse gas emissions.<\/strong><\/p>

The can manufacturers (members of Metal Packaging Europe) and their aluminium suppliers (members of European Aluminium<\/a>) welcomed the new result, but stated, that the recycling rates could be even higher with some additional efforts<\/strong>. In March 2021, the two industry associations published their joint roadmap for 100 per cent can recycling by the year 2030<\/strong> presented. This goal can only be achieved if the existing packaging collection systems in Europe are further improved or replaced by well-designed deposit systems for beverage cans and other relevant beverage packaging.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201eIn view of the increasing demand for fully recyclable packaging systems, the aluminium beverage can, which is made from an endlessly recyclable material<\/strong> is the ideal alternative to less sustainable packaging options,\u201c said L\u00e9onie Knox-Peebles, CEO of Metal Packaging Europe.<\/p>

\u201eWe must now work together to ensure that more used cans are correctly disposed of and recycled<\/strong>, so that we can achieve our ambitious 2030 target. We are confident that the credentials highlighted in our Metal Recycles Forever logo will inspire consumers to do just that.\u201c<\/p>
