15 Apr 2025 CW Team

Vedanta Aluminium had achieved ASI CoC certification in late 2024, following two years of active engagement to align its sustainability initiatives with ASI’s rigorous standards. ASI CoC certification ensures that every stage of aluminium production adheres to the highest environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards, from responsible sourcing of raw materials to ethical and energy-efficient manufacturing. As demand for sustainable materials continues to grow worldwide, Vedanta Aluminium’s ASI-certified metal is poised to enable industries to make environmentally responsible choices.

Speaking about this achievement, Alok Ranjan, Chief Marketing Officer, Vedanta Aluminium, said: “Sustainability is at the heart of Vedanta Aluminium’s business philosophy, and achieving ASI CoC certification represents a defining moment in our journey towards responsible aluminium production. We are proud to supply Capral Aluminium with our ASI-certified material, reinforcing our shared vision for a greener, more transparent aluminium industry. This milestone highlights our ability to cater to the evolving ESG priorities of global markets and positions Vedanta Aluminium as a preferred supplier of responsibly produced aluminium.”

This partnership enables us to strengthen our supply of responsibly sourced aluminium, supporting the Australian manufacturing sector in making more sustainable material choices. As the demand for low-carbon aluminium continues to grow, collaborations like ours with Vedanta play a crucial role in shaping the future of responsible aluminium sourcing.”

The company has also pioneered Restora, one of the world’s lowest-carbon primary aluminium brands, and Restora Ultra, a near-zero carbon aluminium product, offering innovative solutions for industries striving to reduce their carbon footprints.
