Frequently asked questions

How is CBAM emissions apportioned for alloy vs pure aluminium?

CBAM uses default emissions per tonne of aluminium output; alloying elements (Mg, Si, Cu) below ~5% are ignored in the calculation. Very high-magnesium 5083 marine plate does not attract additional CBAM certificates.
