Aluminium Bahrain (Alba) has become the first smelter in the region to be successfully recertified to the newest version (V3) of Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI)’s Performance Standard which was released in May 2022.

The certification, for three years starting from 31 August 2023, was achieved with no major non-conformance following a rigorous on-site audit of Alba and its facilities.

The scope of the certification included the production and marketing of primary aluminium from alumina, calcinations of petroleum coke, water desalination, anode manufacturing, smelting, casting and captive power generation at the Alba Calciner and Smelter sites in Bahrain.

Chief Executive Officer, Ali Al Baqali, said: “This ASI recertification underlines our commitment to environmental stewardship, transparency, and social responsibility.”
