Key Development:

United States: Recent Aluminum Recycling Developments

✅ In November 2025, the Aluminum Association urged the U.S. government to restrict exports of high-quality aluminium scr@p to retain more UBCs domestically, strengthening national manufacturing supply chains and supporting circularity progress.

✅ In October 2025, the Aluminum Association emphasized its revised 2025 policy roadmap, prioritizing EPR programs and improved recycling-refund systems to significantly enhance national aluminum can collection and recycling rates.

✅ In September 2025, U.S. recycling stakeholders highlighted new investments in advanced sorting and separation technologies to increase domestic scr@p recovery and expand re-melting capacity for high-grade aluminum.

✅ In August 2025, industry leaders renewed support for the bipartisan Recycling Infrastructure and Accessibility Act aimed at expanding recycling facilities and improving scr@p-processing capability across underserved U.S. regions.

✅ In July 2025, Toyota Tsusho America completed the full acquisition of Radius Recycling, making the U.S.-based scr@p and non-ferrous metals recycler a wholly owned subsidiary.

Japan: Recent Aluminum Recycling Developments

✅ In November 2025, LIXIL announced the full adoption of its low-carbon "PremiAL" recycled aluminum across all extrusion products, achieving up to 50% CO2 reduction compared to primary aluminum processing.

✅ In September 2025, JX Advanced Metals announced a major ¥7 billion investment to expand recycled-material pre-treatment capacity-including aluminum-by 50% by FY 2027 to advance its green hybrid smelting strategy.

✅ In March 2025, Yamaichi Metal and UACJ formed a joint venture to recycle used beverage cans into high-purity de-coated aluminum chips, accelerating Japan's closed-loop aluminum recycling ecosystem.
