Aluminium is The Green Metal. And that’s not just a hollow phrase. The lightweight material is infinitely recyclable. Recycling aluminium requires only 5% of the energy used to produce primary aluminium – a significant CO2-saving. When considering the full life cycle, the carbon footprint of aluminium is significantly lower than that of Glass Reinforced Plastic.
The way we coat aluminium is considered the most environment-friendly process to apply paint to metal. We use the solvents from the paint to fuel our furnaces. Overall, this makes aluminium the perfect material for a circular economy and as a result sustainable mobility. The Green Metal, and rightly so…

From the moment the aluminium enters our factory we treat it with the utmost care. The large, shiny aluminium coils are carefully stored – and subsequently await a place in our production line. At Euramax for Mobility, no one simply walks past the aluminium we are working so passionately on every day.
Aluminium helps make vehicles lighter than alternative materials. Because of its lightweight nature, recyclability, corrosion resistance, colour retention and ease of fabrication, aluminium is the standard for vehicles. It provides a tight, rigid wall on both the inside and outside of almost any recreational and transport vehicle.
As you may have noticed, we can talk for hours about how we can work with you to make vehicles lighter and more beautiful. We would love to tell you all about it in a personal meeting, where we zoom in on what the use and application of the material could mean for your business (case). And would you like to come and admire those big, shiny aluminium coils and our production line with your own eyes?
You are more than welcome for a tour with us in Roermond.
