Carbon Inventory

Since 2021, we have made continuous efforts to develop our Carbon Inventory – a complex process that requires methodological improvements and data collection maturity. This initiative reflects our commitment to accuracy and transparency in measuring our environmental impact.

In 2024, while consolidating the inventory referring to 2023 emissions, we identified the need to revise the volumes previously reported due to new variables that had not been fully mapped in previous cycles. This update allowed us to enhance data robustness, ensuring greater reliability to support strategic decisions and mitigation actions.

Green Copper: A Key Tool for
Reducing Scope 3 at ASTA BRASIL

Scope 3 accounts for 98% of ASTA BRASIL’s emissions, driven by the high carbon intensity of raw materials such as copper, aluminum and enamels. To tackle this challenge, we highlight Green Copper – our ETP copper recycling solution, which reinserts scrap into the production chain.

Preliminary studies indicate that this approach can reduce CO₂ emissions by up to 80% in wire and cable manufacturing, strengthening our commitment to decarbonization. By 2025, we will move forward with the comparative analysis of carbon footprints, consolidating ASTA BRASIL as a leader in the transition to a low-carbon industry.

Sustainability that transforms: Green Copper closes the copper loop with efficiency and a smaller environmental footprint.
