SUSTAINABILITY
Aluminum is infinitely recyclable, and sustainability is central to the industry's future. Global aluminum can-recycling rates reached 75% in 2023, though North America trails at roughly 43–45% — real room for improvement. Louisville sits within a Midwest/Southeast corridor that's a hub for aluminum recycling and circular-economy activity, and nearby Hawesville, KY hosts one of the only primary aluminum smelters in the U.S. ALUMINUM USA supports the industry's progress toward a more sustainable, circular future.
