A percentage with perspective of growth thanks to the properties and recyclability which aluminum has.

In contrast to other materials like plastic, aluminum is 100% recyclable so, it can be used as raw material for new and other products. Also, the recyclable process is very simple and it saves until 95% of energy.

In Alibérico Food Packaging we promote the recycle of our containers and we adopt waste management measures on the most effective way in order to get that 20% keeps growing thanks to the sustainability of the aluminium.
