Environment & Energy

At Aurubis, we strive to produce at a very high environmental standard across all production sites and business processes.

Aurubis already uses a large volume of recycling materials and has set the target of increasing the proportion of complex recycling materials further, by 20 %, from 2013 to 2018.

Technical Environmental Protection is an important pillar of environmental protection at Aurubis. This also requires a willingness to implement innovative technologies.

Thanks to responsible and close cooperation with business partners and stakeholder groups, as well as participation in committees and associations, Aurubis contributes to the political process.

The efficient use of energy is not only an ecological responsibility for Aurubis but an economic one as well.

The European REACH directive, which has been in effect since 2007, created a new framework for chemicals management.
