Novelis Partners with TSR for Sustainable Aluminum Scrap Supply

Strategic Partnership Announced
In a significant stride towards sustainability, Novelis, a US-based aluminum manufacturer and recycler, has entered into a three-year partnership with TSR Recycling, a leader in European scrap processing. This agreement will secure approximately 75,000 metric tons of pre-sorted and processed aluminum scrap annually, aligning with Novelis’ commitment to providing low-carbon aluminum sheet for the automotive sector.

Expanding Recycling Capacity
Novelis currently recycles around 700,000 metric tons of aluminum scrap annually in Europe, with plans to increase this capacity by an additional 50,000 metric tons. TSR Recycling, experienced in handling both ferrous and non-ferrous scrap, strengthens its longstanding collaboration with Novelis, reinforcing their mutual goal of advancing a sustainable, low-emission future within the metals industry.

Growing Demand for Recycled Aluminum
This partnership comes in response to the rising demand for recycled aluminum as the industry shifts toward sustainable feedstock for metal production. With increasing pressures to reduce scope 2 emissions, aluminum producers are prioritizing materials rich in recycled content. Novelis actively collaborates with automotive clients to incorporate both pre- and post-consumer scrap into high-recycled-content aluminum alloys. The company emphasizes the critical need for a reliable supply of end-of-life materials to support innovative, circular manufacturing solutions.

Driving Sustainability in the Metals Sector
Positioned at the forefront of the industry’s transition, Novelis and TSR recognize that sustainability is not merely a strategic choice but a crucial necessity influenced by regulatory changes and consumer expectations. As the demand for low-emission products accelerates, this partnership exemplifies the growing imperative for sustainable practices in the automotive sector and beyond.
