Aluminum Stewardship Initiative

About us

ASI’s vision, mission and values
Our vision is to maximise the contribution of aluminium to a sustainable society.

Our mission is to recognise and collaboratively foster responsible production, sourcing and stewardship of aluminium.

Our values include:

Being inclusive in our work and decision making processes by promoting and enabling the participation of representatives of all relevant stakeholder groups.
Encouraging uptake throughout the bauxite, alumina and aluminium value chain, from mine to downstream users.
Advancing material stewardship as a shared responsibility in the lifecycle of aluminium from extraction, production, use and recycling.
ASI’s objectives are to:
To define globally applicable standards for sustainability performance and material chain-of-custody for the aluminium value chain
To promote measurable and continual improvements in the key environmental, social and governance impacts of aluminium production, use and recycling
To develop a credible assurance and certification system that both mitigates the risks of non-conformity with ASI standards and minimises barriers to broad scale implementation
to become and remain a globally valued organisation advancing programs for sustainability in the aluminium value chain, which is financially self-sustaining and inclusive of stakeholder interests.
