The life cycle of aluminium
A crucial step in your green building project is the choice of sustainable materials. Luckily, a life cycle analysis (LCA) can help you choose the most responsible solution. How does this method work? And what does it tell about the recyclability of aluminium? Find out here.
A life cycle analysis evaluates the environmental impact of products throughout their entire life, from raw material to final disposal – or what we call “end of life”. In the current building industry, recyclability has become a very important subject as companies start evaluating the life cycle of their core materials. Here we focus on the main component of our window, door, and curtain wall solutions: aluminium.
Endless recyclability
In addition to its aesthetic, extremely durable and energy-efficient properties, aluminium offers excellent results in terms of sustainability and recyclability as well. And unlike many other building materials, aluminium does not lose its characteristics in the recycling process. Enjoy unrivalled quality and performance at all times
