For the foreseeable future, sustainable management of the environment will be one of the greatest challenges facing our planet. The aluminium industry is committed to reducing energy consumption and emissions through more efficient production and recycling.

Gooding Aluminium believes in, and is therefore committed to, policies that provide for sustainable development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own requirements.

There is a growing awareness within all of us of the many environmental issues that are developing our values and driving demand for ‘green’ products and services. More and more client specifications are calling for environmentally conscious material selection.

The aluminium industry has appreciated for some time that today shapes tomorrow. Many advances in production technologies are being made that are helping to conserve resources, reduce emissions and eliminate disposal issues in the production of primary aluminium.

Environmental issues are frequently complex and contested. We therefore only seek, in this part to provide a broad outline of the environmentally significant aspects that are at the heart of aluminium production. Information on life cycle performance and surface finishing technologies is also provided.

Gooding Aluminium are a national and international supplier of a wide range of high quality aluminium products.
