Aluminum has always been and will always be valuable!
What do the flagpoles left on the Moon in 1969 have in common, III. In Napoleon’s dinnerware, a jeans button and a drinks can? Surprising or not, its material. Aluminum has been known for thousands of years, but its extraction and processing have been difficult for a long time, so its value has rivaled that of gold. Nowadays, it can be regarded as one of the most valuable and versatile raw materials, but today it is not primarily because of its economic value, but because it can be recycled endlessly, and this is a particularly useful feature due to sustainability.

Aluminum is the most common metal on Earth, but its production is a very energy-intensive and expensive process, which is why it is our joint task to take care of the amount that has already been produced. It is interesting that about 75 percent of the aluminum ever mined is still in use. Let’s let our imaginations run wild as to what this means. It is possible that the very box from which we drank our morning coffee today was once a component of an old coin, an automotive part or even the necklace of a noblewoman who lived in the 1800s.
