"Hindalco’s product portfolio largely comprising of Aluminium and Copper lends itself to huge recycling potential. Infact Aluminium is the most valuable material in the recycling bin and can be recycled directly back into itself over and over again. Recycling of aluminium and copper greatly reduces energy and environmental impacts. Our downstream manufacturing plants have dedicated aluminium recycling and remelting facilities. We recycle process scrap from customers and scrap collected from the market together with our own process scrap. Our copper smelting facility at Dahej also undertakes recycling of copper scrap and recovery of copper from slag discarded by conventional production activities"
