STEP-G is a member of the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI)

13-04-2022 | The aluminium company ST Extruded Products Group, STEP-G for short, has been an official member of the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) since March 2022. This membership marks the next stage in STEP-G’s comprehensive sustainability strategy.

For the last ten years, the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) has been working to improve transparency and sustainability among aluminium processors and manufacturers. In the context of a sustainable production process, it identifies potential for improvement and evaluates the effectiveness of the company’s sustainability strategy. As a non-profit standardisation and certification organisation, ASI thus pursues the vision of making a sustainable contribution to our society through the use of aluminium. By becoming a member of the ASI, STEP-G is committed to this sustainable manufacturing approach along the added value supply chain within the aluminium industry.

The main focus areas for STEP-G are the use of sustainable energy, the consistent recording of its ecological footprint in all production and logistics processes, and the establishment of a corporate social responsibility management system. Ensuring 100 per cent recyclability of its products and procuring sustainably sourced aluminium as a raw material are key elements of STEP-G’s approach to sustainability.

The aluminium specialist STEP-G is aware of its corporate responsibility. “We actively take responsibility for making a sustainable contribution to society and our environment,” says Markus Ogawa, Managing Director STEP-G. “Our sustainability strategy is based on protecting our environment – starting with procurement and including our in-house production process and deliveries to our customers,” adds Edgar Gebhart, Managing Director STEP-G.

By joining the ASI, the STEP-G Group commits to obtaining certification in accordance with the ASI Performance Standard.
