Trade fabricator A Plus Aluminium has been recognised for its contribution towards a greener and more sustainable future by systems house Technal UK with the presentation of the Circal award. 

A Plus fabricates system solutions made from the End of Life (EoL) Aluminium Hydro Circal 75R. During the period October 2020 to October 2021, the Watford-based fabricator made use of 87 tonnes of Hydro Circal 75R. This equates to cutting out 549 tonnes of CO2 emissions when compared to primary aluminium.

Technal national sales manager Tim Adams said: “We are presenting several awards to A Plus and other customers to recognise the work they have done to lower their carbon emissions by using Hydro Circal 75R and Hydro Reduxa. By working alongside us, and choosing Technal products, our valued partner A Plus Aluminium has saved 549 tonnes of CO2 from entering the atmosphere. That’s the equivalent amount of CO2 that’s released by driving 1,362,732 miles in an average car!”

To mark the significance of A Plus’s contribution towards climate protection Technal UK presented A Plus co-managing director, Jon Palethorpe with a commemorative plaque and medal.

Jon said: “We are incredibly proud to receive this award from Technal UK.  Hydro is an important part of our product offering; it enables us to provide our customers with a viable green and sustainable option.  As the impact of climate change is understood more widely, it’s vital that system solutions such as this are readily available so we can all do more – no matter your place in the supply chain – to safeguard the future of our environment.”

Hydro Circal is a brand of recycled aluminium made with a minimum of 75% recycled, post-consumer aluminium scrap.  In using recycled aluminium, energy use in the production phase is drastically reduced whilst still offering high-quality aluminium.  The Hydro low-carbon aluminium product range helps designers, architects and specifiers deliver against sustainable goals and meet the demands of climate-conscious consumers.
