First Greek company to be “OK Recycled” certified

19.06.2023

Alumil is the first company in Greece to receive the TÜV AUSTRIA “OK Recycled” certification to produce aluminum profiles from 60% recycled aluminum raw material!

Committed to the principles of sustainability and circular economy

Alumil, with more than 30 years of experience and 2.200 employees, is one of the most advanced companies in the design and production of architectural aluminum systems worldwide. At the same time, all 12 factories in Europe possess the most modern production lines. For many years, Alumil’s business strategy has been based on the principles of sustainability and the circular economy, taking steady and decisive steps towards reducing its environmental footprint.

OK Recycled Alumil

One of these was the creation of the state-of-the-art aluminum scrap sorting and processing plant at its premises in the Industrial Area of Kilkis, Greece. Its pioneering unit makes a significant contribution to meeting its environmental objectives, as it is used to produce aluminum from recycled raw material.

With the “OK Recycled” certification, Alumil demonstrates in practice that the manufacturing excellence they strive for is not only an end, but the means to realize their vision: improving the quality of people’s lives, which is interconnected with the quality of the natural environment .

Reliable and objective representation of the recycling percentage

The OK Recycled certification scheme is based on quantification of mass balances and coordinated traceability of the recycled content of a product or group of products. It is applicable to any type of material (e.g. plastic, aluminium, fibres, paper) and any product that uses recycled material in its production. The benefit of OK Recycled lies in ensuring that the information on the recycled content of the product in question is reliable, objective and easily identifiable.
