European Aluminium represents the interests of the entire value chain of the aluminium industry in Europe. It works to promote aluminium, especially with European Union decision-makers and other important stakeholders.

The Recycling Division is responsible for market and policy monitoring of recycling activities.

“It is a great honor to be elected the third time to chair European Aluminium’s Recycling Division that comes with the dissolution of OEA – Organisation of the European Aluminium recycling industry – and its full integration into European Aluminium,” Scharf-Bergmann says.

“The main focus for the future will be on supporting European Aluminium and EU Commission work on ‘Circular Economy,’ waste-related topics, trade and other issues to illustrate the sustainability of aluminium and promote the aluminium industry.”
