Low Carbon Aluminum

Recycled and CO2-reduced aluminum

In order to make an active contribution to climate protection and to meet projects with the highest sustainability requirements, heroal relies on CO2-reduced and recycled aluminum. The low carbon aluminum range from heroal offers individual solutions for fabricators, architects and planners. This allows emissions to be significantly reduced during the construction phase. All CO2 values and the proportion of recycled material are documented transparently and comprehensibly. In addition, all production steps along the entire value chain are completely transparent.

heroal Low Carbon Aluminum

Carbon footprint 1.9*

heroal Low Carbon Aluminum has a Global Warming Potential value of up to a minimum of 1.9 kg CO2 e/kg aluminum (LC-Al C1.9) per profile.

*based on the mass balance approach in accordance with ISO 22095

75 % recycling rate

heroal Low Carbon Aluminum contains up to 75 % post-consumer material (LC-Al R75).

DEKRA certified

The heroal low carbon aluminum range is certified by DEKRA. Compliance with the carbon footprint and the recycling rate are regularly checked there.

What distinguishes Low Carbon Aluminum?

CO2-reduced aluminum is obtained by using renewable energies such as wind, water and solar power. This allows CO2 emissionsto be significantly reduced. In addition, recycled aluminum is increasingly being used. The production of recycled aluminum requires 95% less energy than primary production - without any loss of quality. This production method makes low carbon aluminum an environmentally friendly alternative that conserves resources and reduces the ecological footprint.

Aluminum - material of the future


heroal relies on aluminum as a material because of its outstanding properties.

  • Surface

    Thanks to a variety of coating technologies, aluminum products have a very durable and high-quality surface that is highly resistant to weathering and corrosion, even after decades of use. Aluminum surfaces are also virtually maintenance-free and particularly easy to care for.

  • Stability

    The high material stability enables unique aesthetics. Filigree profiles can also be used to create large construction widths for windows, façades or sliding doors, for example. At the same time, the material used and the weight of the aluminum profiles remain low.

  • Recycling

    As a member of A|U|F e.V., we support the environmentally friendly recycling of aluminum. We use recycled aluminum from old building elements for our products because, unlike materials such as plastic, it retains its quality with every recycling process. Aluminum is fully recyclable, so our heroal systems can be easily recycled and reused at the end of their life cycle. This conserves resources and helps to reduce CO2 emissions in the construction industry.

Our path to a climate-friendly future

"heroal relies on Low Carbon Aluminum because we are convinced that sustainable solutions are the way to a climate-neutral future. We have a great responsibility towards current and future generations and are constantly looking for new ways to optimize our system solutions in terms of their carbon footprint."
