Gränges extended its partnership with NG Nordic, a provider of circular solutions for waste and environmental challenges, through a long-term agreement for the supply of recycled aluminum to Gränges’ production facility in Finspång, Sweden. The partnership secures access to high-quality, traceable material and supports the development of more circular aluminum solutions.
“Long-term partnerships are essential to securing access to recycled materials and to continue advancing circular aluminum solutions,” said Fredrik Spens, president of Gränges Europe. “The collaboration with NG Nordic strengthens our ability to optimize material flows across the value chain and deliver more sustainable products to our customers.”
The agreement builds on a long-standing collaboration between the companies and includes deliveries from NG Nordic’s recycling operations in the Nordic region. Gränges processes and reuses the material in its production of advanced aluminum solutions for automotive, transportation, packaging, industrial, and other markets. Increasing the share of recycled aluminum is a key lever for reducing the carbon footprint of products and improve resource efficiency across the value chain.
NG Nordic supplies recycled aluminum from a broad base of collected materials, where advanced sorting and recycling technologies enable consistent high quality, even from complex waste streams. As part of the partnership, NG Nordic applies its traceability concept, Transparent Metal, enabling full transparency in material flows and strengthening control of quality, volumes, and origin.
“Partnerships like this are key to accelerating the circular economy,” said Toni Ahtiainen, executive vice president, Sustainable Materials, NG Nordic. “By combining our advanced recycling capabilities and traceability solution, Transparent Metal, with Gränges’ production, we ensure that high-quality recycled aluminum is efficiently returned to new products.”
