Sustainability and Circular Economy Initiatives
Novelis continues to emphasize its commitment to sustainability and the circular economy. The company's strategy involves leveraging its 15 Scrap Collection Centers across Brazil to drive the circular economy of aluminum. These centers play a crucial role in ensuring the efficient and sustainable circulation of aluminum cans throughout Brazil.
The Collection Centers are strategically located across the country's five regions, facilitating partnerships with suppliers of aluminum scrap for the recycling industry. They also strengthen Novelis' connection with the initial links in the recycling chain, such as cooperatives and individual collectors, providing competitive remuneration for collected materials.
These centers perform important steps such as weighing, quality analysis, cleaning, and pressing before the scrap reaches Novelis' Integrated Aluminum Rolling and Recycling Complex in Pindamonhangaba. This process reinforces aluminum's potential as a highly circular material, with the end product being sheets containing over 80% recycled content, ready for manufacturing new cans.

Cida is part of the RedeTransforma Program, an initiative supported by Novelis that focuses on valuing and professionalizing autonomous waste pickers. This story highlights the social impact of recycling and the circular economy, demonstrating how Novelis' sustainability efforts extend beyond material transformation to positively impact lives and strengthen communities.

Global Partnerships for Sustainability
Novelis Korea signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Dong-A Otsuka, a leading Korean beverage manufacturer, to promote resource circularity through canned drinking water. The product, 'THE MASINDA', has been designated as an official sponsor product for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation 2025 (APEC 2025) event.
This partnership involves incorporating QR codes on THE MASINDA cans, linking consumers to information about aluminum's superior recyclability and circularity attributes. The cans are manufactured from aluminum sheet with a high percentage of recycled content, produced at Novelis' Yeongju plant. This initiative aligns with APEC 2025's theme of "Building a Sustainable Tomorrow" and reinforces the message of sustainability in the beverage industry.
