The Olympia Las Rozas Women’s Football Club, sponsored by ALIBERICO, was born in 2015 with the only aim of promoting women’s sport, in particular football, from chilhood to adult stages. The Club has not stopped growing since its beginnings and continues to achieve success, consolidating itself in a sport with little female presence to date.

This season 2021-2022 has been marked by great football victories for CFF Olympia Las Rozas, which has achieved a historical promotion in its Senior categories; the Senior A team has played in First National League and Senior B have been League champions and have moved up to Preferente League; the Juvenil A team has been among the top places in its Group in Preferente Women’s Youth Football League.  Its Alevín B and Infantil B teams have been champions and runners-up, respectively, in the Community of Madrid League.  In addition to their victories in the Women’s Football League, they have also won a multitude of Championships and Tournaments. Recently, the Veterans team were runners-up in the Donosti Masters Cup and the Senior team won the Torneo de la Cerámica from Talavera.

All this has been thanks to the dedication, effort, willpower and desire that all the players show in every match.

ALIBERICO, which is committed to sport and equality as part of its Sustainable Development Goals plan, shares with CFF Olympia Las Rozas an identical culture based on values such as creating and trusting in people, teamwork and the passion and enthusiasm to achieve new goals, always within the framework of equal conditions and opportunities.

ALIBERICO, proud sponsor of CFF Olympia Las Rozas for promoting women’s sport, helping all generations to fulfil their dreams.

The week of 30 May to 5 June has taken place the EU Green Week, one of the biggest European events on the environment, which brings together important personalities to discuss European environmental policy.

This year’s edition was focused on the European Green Pact and what are the strategies for sustainable and transformative growth of companies, paying special attention to the circular economy, zero pollution and biodiversity.

Miranda de Ebro has been one of the two Spanish cities selected by the European Commission to host a business event focused on environmental issues because it has 15 business projects related to the Green Economy.

ALUCOIL participated in the event, represented by its General Manager, Belén Martín, who in her speech presented the many and diverse advantages of aluminium, the company’s raison d’être. She highlighted the magnificent recyclability properties of this material, demonstrating that aluminium is the perfect example of circular economy, sustainability and green future. She also pointed out the strict Quality and Environmental Management policies to which the company is subject, and thanks to which its products are internationally certified.

In her presentation, Belén Martín also presented to the attendees the Sunthalpy house, the first house in the world disconnected from the electricity grid for more than a year and 100% self-sufficient, whose air conditioning system is made with larcore® panels and covered with larson® panels manufactured by ALUCOIL.

ALUCOIL has a clear objective in the short, medium and long term: to take better and better care of people and the environment, offering advanced solutions in aluminium.

On the 24th of May the students of FP of Mechanics of the IES Pirineos de Jaca, together with their teacher, visited the facilities of IBERFOIL. These facilities are located in Sabiñánigo (Huesca), and it is the only factory in Spain specialised in aluminium thin sheet rolling between 6mm and 6 microns.

The students were very interested throughout the visit and were able to see first-hand the inside of the factory, and what the reality of working in the world of aluminium is like. They were able to see IBERFOIL‘s rolling, cutting, separating, annealing and packaging processes, what their uses are and how they prepare the material to finally send it to their customers.

The IBERFOIL technicians who accompanied them during the visit informed them about the mechanics used in the factory, such as pneumatics, hydraulics and high-tech automatisms. They were also able to see the new Edelweiss Rolling Mill and the new Tension Leveller in full operation. The technicians also told them about the new IBERFOIL Integra project and informed them about the vital importance of recycling, the circular economy and IBERFOIL‘s commitment to a sustainable future.

This visit was the perfect way for the students to get in touch with the industrial reality and to be able to bet on a job that is based on aluminium’s world. In IBERFOIL, they will find a future in line with their qualities and will be able to develop their professional value.

This action brings together specialised students and the labour needs of the factory, leader in the aluminium rolling sector.

IBERFOIL, committed to quality education (SDG 4) and decent work (SDG 8).

As part of its comprehensive Sustainability Plan, ALIBERICO has closed the purchase of 100% of the Aragonese company Ibérica de Aleaciones Ligeras (IDALSA), Spain’s second largest manufacturer of aluminium smelting and recycling, which is the first of its acquisitions in the liquid aluminium sector, with the aim of committing to the circular economy and a green and sustainable industry.

IDALSA has a 300,000 square meter plant in the town of Remolinos, near Zaragoza (Spain), and recycles 60,000 tons of liquid aluminium from scrap metal per year.  The company currently produces 45,000 tons per year of aluminium ingots in different formats and compositions, mainly for the automotive industry. The company has a workforce of 49 workers and in 2021 had a turnover of 75 million euros, of which 70% comes from its exports to countries in Europe, America and Asia.

This investment is part of the ALIBERICO Group’s Sustainability Plan, which focuses on boosting the Circular Economy and drastically reducing CO2 emissions, and certifies the Group’s commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. In early 2022, ALIBERICO started up its first self-consumption photovoltaic installation at its Alicante factory, RedBOND Composites, with the aim of obtaining environmental benefits equivalent to avoiding the emission of 200 tons/year of CO2 into the atmosphere and the planting of 400 trees. ALIBERICO is also currently implementing the IBERFOIL INTEGRA project in Sabiñánigo (Huesca, Spain), which involves the construction of a new factory in an area adjacent to the current IBERFOIL lamination plant. The new plant will be entirely dedicated to scrap recovery, smelting and coil manufacturing, and is set to become a benchmark for the Circular Economy in Spain.

With the incorporation of IDALSA, ALIBERICO now has 21 factories in the world, of which 17 are in Spain, in 9 Autonomous Communities, and another four abroad, exporting 70% of its production and selling its products in more than 90 countries in the 5 continents. ALIBERICO operates with technologically advanced aluminium products and Premium brands recognized as world leaders in the packaging, building, surface treatment, transportation, industry and renewable energy sectors.
