ASI Certification
Eurofoil joined ASI in August 2017 and received the performance standard certification in April 2019, followed by the chain of custody certification in May 2020.
What does the ASI certification mean?
ASI is the only responsible sourcing program that addresses practices along the full aluminium chain.
This includes upstream production right through to downstream use sectors, such as packaging, transport, construction and engineering.
If you see the ASI Certified logo on our product, it is your assurance of responsible production, sourcing and stewardship of aluminium.

We run solar >>
In this episode of "They Run Solar," watch Eurofoil compensate for the heavy energy consumption of their business (aluminum foil production) by installing solar panels on every available surface on their premises, which helps to produce the equivalent of the annual energy consumption of 800 households.
"As a player in the heavy industry, we have to compensate for our intensive energy consumption." - Mario Vaglio, CEO
The project is a third party investment. Future extensions, both on rooftop and carports, have already been confirmed as we speak.
