28 Jun 2023 --- Amcor Capsules and Aludium are marketing aluminum for use in screw caps with more than a 50% reduction in carbon footprint compared to primary aluminum sold in Europe. Compared to primary aluminum produced in China, the product by Amcor Capsules and Aludium, made in Europe, North America and South America, represents an average carbon footprint reduction of more than 80%. “Our aluminum screw caps have been made using exclusively European-based aluminum, resulting in an average CO2 emission that is already lower than any other region. As a result, Amcor screw caps are well positioned against other screw caps on the market that use a blend of European and non-European aluminum,” Yannick Magnon, Amcor Capsules general manager, tells Packaging Insights.
