Constellium discussed decarbonization initiatives

Constellium discussed decarbonization initiatives at the White House Roundtable.

Last March 3, 2023, Jean-Marc Germain attended the White House at the invitation of President Biden-Harris to participate in a roundtable discussion on industrial innovation and decarbonization, along with other high-ranking dignitaries, industry professionals and labor leaders. The intention was to share Constellium’s efforts to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and to establish a public-private partnership to address climate change.

During this meeting, Germain reaffirmed the importance of government investments to combat climate change, specifically by referring to the Inflation Reduction Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Act. He also stressed the need for workers to obtain job security as this conversion proceeds. Finally, Germain suggested betting on deposit return programs to help achieve a higher recycling rate in the United States.

“I was honored to be invited to participate in this roundtable at the White House, and was excited to learn more about the many initiatives and efforts by industry and the Administration to promote a low-carbon economy,” said Jean-Marc Germain, CEO of Constellium. “Decarbonization is a critical issue that requires collaboration between the public and private sectors, and Constellium is eager to continue supporting efforts to reduce carbon emissions and promote a circular economy.”

Finally, Constellium has disclosed its commitment to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions intensity by 30% in 2030 versus 2021, and to increase its recycled input to at least 50% by 2030.
