ISTANBUL, October 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

Assan Alüminyum, a subsidiary of the Kibar Group and one of the 3 largest aluminium foil producers in Europe, is celebrating the 30^th anniversary of its establishment this year. The company hosted its business partners at the Aluminium 2018, the largest aluminium trade show in the world, taking place on October 9 - 11, in Düsseldorf, with almost 30,000 visitors. The booth's design elements emphasized the firm's focus on being environmentally sustainable in its processes, fitting the slogan "Infinite Harmony with Nature". The semi-green "infinity" aluminium coil design symbolized the infinite cycle of aluminium, as it's 100 percent recyclable and provides renewable energy. Assan Alüminyum produces renewable energy in its own power plant, at a rate that is equivalent to its electrical energy consumption. The company also has an integrated recycling facility contributing to the company's sustainability strategy.
