Recyclate counts
Secondary share per alloy and batch becomes the key figure — customers want substantiated numbers, not brochure values.
Industry solution
Digital Product Passport for aluminium
Primary or secondary, ingot or profile: aluminium is an intermediate product in the first ESPR working plan — and your carbon and recyclate data already decide over orders today.
Where your industry stands
In the first ESPR working planThe ESPR working plan 2025–2030 lists aluminium as a prioritised intermediate product; concrete requirements come via delegated act. In parallel, CBAM applies to aluminium imports, and buyers from automotive, construction and packaging already systematically request recycled content and emission values.
As of July 2026. Regulatory information summarised to the best of our knowledge — not legal advice; the EU legal texts prevail.
What the industry is dealing with
Energy and carbon evidence
Electricity mix, electrolysis, remelting: the footprint varies strongly — and must be robustly documented per product line.
Many buyer industries
Automotive questionnaire, construction EPD, packaging recyclate quota: every industry asks in its own format — the data base should still be one.
What Passenta takes over
One data base, many disclosures

Frequently asked questions
When does the passport obligation for aluminium arrive?
Aluminium is prioritised as an intermediate product in the first ESPR working plan; dates are set by the delegated act. There is no fixed date yet — CBAM and customer requirements apply already.
Can we map recycled content per batch?
Yes. Passenta works with product data and evidence per product or lot; recycled content is kept as a substantiated value, not free marketing text.
Our customers send their own questionnaires — does this still help?
That's exactly what the disclosure package is for: sites, suppliers, evidence with validity as a structured package. Most questionnaires can be served directly from it.
