We are committed to reducing our carbon footprint, mitigating climate change, and driving the transition to a low-carbon circular economy.
Our approach focuses on responsible production and minimising our environmental footprint through best practices and integrated environmental management systems. By investing in advanced technologies and continuous employee training, we ensure environmentally sustainable operations and product development. We adopt Best Available Techniques (BAT) to optimise resource efficiency, minimise environmental impact, and promote sustainable natural resources use across all manufacturing activities.
ElvalHalcor’s commitments, strategic priorities and overall approach are outlined in our Environment, Energy and Climate Change Policy.

ElvalHalcor‘s strategy integrates reducing its carbon footprint and mitigating climate change, reflecting its commitment to a low-carbon circular economy. The double materiality assessment performed in the context of CSRD identifies climate change and energy as one of the most critical sustainability matters for the company. As an energy-intensive industry utilising raw materials with high embedded GHG emissions, our Enviromental, Energy and Climate Change policy addresses key factors critical to reducing our environmental impact:
ElvalHalcor aligns with the TCFD framework, publishing our first report to highlight our climate-related risks, opportunities and strategies. This transparent reporting enhances understanding, builds trust and supports climate action.
CDP, a leading non-profit organisation, has developed a global platform to assess and document how organisations manage greenhouse gas emissions, water usage and their impacts on land.
ElvalHalcor participates in CDP platform achieving a C grade for our 2023 performance, aligning with the European industry average.
We leverage the inherent recyclability of aluminium and copper, incorporating secondary metals (scrap) to reduce our environmental footprint. A significant focus is placed on recycling end-of-life scrap, replacing primary raw materials and minimising the energy required for production.
Through investments in recycled materials and efficient production processes, we actively contribute to the circular economy, reducing raw material consumption and promoting sustainability throughout our product lifecycle.
Water is essential to ElvalHalcor’s production process, and its responsible use is critical for sustainable operations. Key practices include:
At ElvalHalcor, our commitment to social sustainability begins with our people and extends to the communities we touch and the partnerships we build. By fostering a culture of inclusivity, integrity, and responsibility, we empower our workforce, support local economies, and uphold ethical practices throughout our value chain. Together, we strive to create meaningful value for society and drive sustainable growth.
