The certification covered all nine of Ball’s manufacturing plants, aerosol packaging, and slugs worldwide.
Ball becomes the first impact extruded aluminum manufacturing company that’s able to supply ASI certified aluminum aerosol cans, slugs, and bottles to its customers.
The announcement aligns to Ball’s 2030 sustainability goals in achieving net zero carbon emissions before 2050 and transitioning to 100% renewable electricity by 2030. This also includes ensuring all aluminum is purchased from certified sustainable sources.
Achieving ASI certification is a way for companies to show that they are compliant with increasingly stringent sustainability protocols.
Jay Billings, president of Ball Aerosol Packaging said: “Achieving ASI certification demonstrates our commitment to sustainability and is the result of a rigorous process.
“Infinitely recyclable aluminum packaging is a prime example of material circularity where resources stay in the system, reducing impacts on the environment. Our aluminum aerosol business’ sustainability efforts showcase what can be achieved through material and emissions reduction goal setting, innovation and, especially, partnership with customers.”
