Century Aluminum Launches New Line of Low-Carbon Aluminum Products

CHICAGO, Feb. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Century Aluminum Company (NASDAQ: CENX) today announced the launch of its Natur-Al™ low-carbon aluminum products. Natur-Al™ aluminum products are produced at our ASI-certified Norðurál Grundartangi aluminum plant in Iceland, with energy from 100 percent renewable sources, allowing us to achieve CO₂ levels below one-fourth of the industry average, or 4 tonnes CO₂ per tonne of aluminum, one of the lowest CO₂ footprints in the world. All CO₂ emissions are verified by independent third parties, facilitating life-cycle assessments for our customers.

Natur-Al™ ZERO is our fully offset, pure, carbon-neutral aluminum product line. We encourage and assist our customers to go all the way to carbon-neutrality through contributions to reforestation and wetland-reclamation projects.
