Sustainability

Commited to doing our part

Alvenius pipes are made from 100% recyclable steel, and all our production in Eskilstuna is powered by fossil-free energy. We are proud of this!

Our steel primarily comes from SSAB, one of the world’s leading companies in sustainable steel production. SSAB was among the first to have its emission reduction targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) under their new, stricter guidelines for the steel industry launched in 2023.

SSAB’s ambitious sustainability efforts, combined with our own commitment, help create a circular economy and a more sustainable future for all of us.

Buy-back

Minimize – Reuse – Recycle. At Alvenius, we manufacture high-quality pipes. This is not only something we know through extensive experience but also something we ensure through thorough testing conducted by independent third parties.

Our choice of high-quality steel contributes to minimal resource use. The steel is also fully recyclable, and thanks to its long lifespan, we can, in some cases, offer a buy-back program for our products. These pipes are then refurbished and ready for reuse in new installations, further extending their lifecycle.

Our ambition is to offer a product where neither energy extraction nor disposal should be the only options after its first use.

Save energy

In addition to its excellent corrosion protection, our coating Corroflo guarantees low flow resistance during media transport. The low friction allows for the selection of smaller dimensions or pumps, thereby saving up to 50% in energy.

This enables us to help you minimize your carbon footprint throughout the system’s lifetime.

Sustainable Material Choices

At Alvenius, we choose materials with care. National and international regulations require us as manufacturers to be aware of and transparent about the content, material properties, and origin of our materials.

We need to consider climate impact, be knowledgeable about chemical regulations (REACH, POPs, etc.), and ensure that no conflict minerals are present in our products.

Before we choose a new material, we think carefully.
