In 2021, Aluproff introduced new versions of the two classics 2001 CIRCAL © and 2005 CIRCAL ©. The two curtain rails is made of recycled aluminium – Hydro CIRCAL 75R © aluminium – with a record-low CO2 footprint.
The curtain rails is made of at least 75% recycled aluminium, which derives from household waste. These scrap materials have reached the end of their lifecycle as products before reentering the cycle. When aluminium is recycled, less heat and thus energy is generated, which helps to reduce CO2 emissions.
With respect for people and the environment, Aluproff's mission is to create quality solutions through sustainable product innovation. It is about discovering new potential in products in order to reduce the CO2 footprint as much as possible and create products with long viability.
Recycled aluminium
Aluminium is considered the "green metal" and is actually 100% recyclable. Its strength, flexibility and longevity as well as the possibilities of recycling make the material more sustainable compared to other alternatives. In addition, of course, com es the recycling process.
Hydro, the company where the aluminum for the curtain rails is recycled, works proactively to reduce CO2 emissions and climate change. This is achieved in particular by reducing the generation of heat and thus energy during the production phase. Once the aluminium has been recycled Hydro cleans and then sorts the waste so that only the least contaminated materials return to the cycle.
According to Aluproff, the process is performed with full traceability. The product is certified by the independent third party, DNV.
