Virtuous aluminium for a sustainable world
Decarbonisation: a major challenge
Committing to our region
As an official partner of LOSC this season, Aluminium Dunkerque is proud to see its logo on the sleeve of the players’ shirts for the 8 matches in the Champions League group stage.
Through this partnership, we intend to underline our historic roots in the Hauts-de-France region, convey a positive and dynamic image of our company and involve our employees in the Dogues’ fine campaign, which is the pride of our region.
Aluminium Dunkerque is currently developing an aluminium with a purity level of between 99.98% and 99.998% pure aluminium. Intended for the semiconductor, capacitor and battery markets, it will be launched on the market in 2027. Total capacity will be around 3,000 tonnes per year, once the 5 casting units are up and running. Production trials will take place in mid-2025. Like the rest of our range, this is a low-carbon aluminium, a key criterion for our customers.
On Saturday 28 September, Aluminium Dunkerque organised a Family Day, an event that gave the 171 registered employees the opportunity to introduce their families to the company and its production process. The day’s programme for the 600 guests included tours of the company, musical entertainment, inflatable structures, games for young and old and continuous catering.
A major primary
aluminium producer
in Europe
designs, produces and markets low-carbon and circular aluminium.
Aluminium Dunkerque specialises in the production of slabs and ingots in a wide variety of alloys for high added-value applications in the automotive, transport and packaging sectors in particular.
Aluminium is a strategic metal for the environmental transition, and Aluminium Dunkerque is one of the world leaders in the production of low-carbon aluminium. The company has reduced its emissions by 17% (scope 1,2) since 2013 and emits four times less greenhouse gases than the global average for the sector.
On the strength of those achievements, we intend to play a major role in European low-carbon aluminium production for the benefit of our customers and our communities. Which is why we are accelerating our energy and environmental transition in line with the COP21 objectives.
