We are very proud to announce that Stemin spa has obtained Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) V3 certification, which marks Stemin’s long-standing commitment to the recovery and treatment of aluminium metal.
The Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) is a global organisation that establishes standards and certification to promote responsible production, sourcing and management in the global aluminium value chain. It brings together producers, users and stakeholders in the value chain of this metal with a commitment to maximise the contribution of its use in an increasingly sustainable society.
“The achievement of the ASI Performance Standard V3 is an important milestone that confirms Stemin spa as one of the best in Europe and worldwide in this sector and a benchmark for its customers and partners. It is tangible proof of our commitment, our reliability and the quality of our processes and products. – commented the President, Olivo Foglieni – My thanks go to the entire team that has taken part in the achievement of this milestone for the work they carry out every day in the control of issues that are now indispensable”.
Since its inception in 1999, the mission carried out by Stemin and the entire industrial Group to which it belongs, has been to create a sustainable business model based on a perfect circular economy whereby reprocessed metal scrap takes on a new life in semi-finished secondary aluminium products and finished products for domestic heating with only one common denominator: the use of secondary aluminium as a raw material.

Stemin spa has published the first edition of its non-financial reporting for 2021: a symbol of the importance of ESG issues in its business model.
“This document, which is our first non-financial report, stems from the desire to share a path that we have been undertaking since our birth, an increasingly oriented path towards sustainability, not only from the production processes point of view, but also about the use of natural resources, well-being of people, inside and outside the company, and of the relationship with stakeholders and the territory in its various components. The commitment in achieving leadership in sustainability is deeply rooted in our values.
Our goal is to continue investing in new and virtuous aluminium production chains, stimulating an internal corporate and environmental culture that is increasingly responsible and receptive to sustainability issues.
For us this document not as a simple report, but an open dialogue with all our stakeholders to constantly improve ourselves, our business and our relationship with the surrounded reality “, declares President Foglieni.
For Stemin spa, the attention to the environment has been the founding value since its birth, based on the recovery and recycling of secondary raw materials, but this is not enough.
Environmental sustainability is a broader issue that concerns work, territory, people as well as the environment. This is the reason why our report is a journey within our industrial reality to understand how we are working and what else we can do.
ESG issues are fundamental for doing business in a sustainable way and accompanying the entire organization on a long-term path in which these indicators and themes merge with the real industrial strategy.
We can proudly affirm that we are building an increasingly sustainable reality by setting for ourselves challenging goals in line with what we absolutely must do to leave our heirs a world at least equal to what we found: the concrete and essential foundation of sustainability itself.
To date, recovering waste aluminium already means minimizing electricity consumption for the production itself by using 95% less electricity, avoiding mining activities and recovering fundamental raw materials for modern industry. We would like to do more by trying to minimize the impact of our industrial production by reducing emissions by 2% next year thanks to more efficient and technologically advanced systems and greater self-production of electricity from renewable sources.
