Nexans has recently joined Aluminium Forward 2030, a coalition of IAI’s 25 production members and 20 downstream and customer companies who have committed themselves to transforming the aluminium sector. The project aims to accelerate progress toward net zero emissions in the aluminium industry while working together on a roadmap that is inclusive of all the other United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The coalition aims to protect and enhance the societal value of aluminium in all its applications as well as give members the opportunity to be part of a learning community that will transform the future of supply chains.

Though reducing greenhouse gas emissions and combating climate change have become priorities for the aluminium industry, the sector still needs to move comprehensively toward net zero carbon in a way that addresses all other aspects of sustainability. This is why the IAI has formed the Aluminium Forward 2030 coalition, which Nexans has already endorsed. Nexans takes steps to use as much low-carbon aluminium as possible in product manufacturing, and through their recycling solutions the group recovers all types of end-of-life aluminium and copper cables, thus making a positive contribution to the environment.

Vincent Dessale, Nexans’ Chief Operating Officer and Senior Executive Vice President said, “ In the fight against climate change, it is essential that our industries come together to share insights and best practices – the tools, technologies and approaches that are going to make a real difference. This is why Nexans has decided to join Aluminium Forward 2030. Through this coalition, we are keen to participate and collaborate with others to find out how we can continue to make progress. ”
