Crown’s Expansion of ASI Certification in Asia: A Step Towards Sustainable Aluminum Production
Crown Holdings, Inc. (Crown) has extended its ASI certifications to the Asia Pacific region as part of its Twentyby30™ sustainability program, which aims to promote responsible supply chains. The Nong Khae and Crown TCP beverage packaging plants in Thailand, both owned by the company, have recently been awarded the ASI Performance Standard certification.
This brings the total number of facilities in Crown’s network with this designation to 12, including operations in Brazil and Mexico. The ASI Performance Standard confirms that the recipient’s production practices are responsible and addresses environmental, social, and governance principles for the aluminum value chain. In addition to meeting the required criteria as part of an independent third-party audit, the recent certifications in Thailand are also linked to advancing employee training in areas such as biodiversity, safety, and human rights.
"Achieving this ASI certification is another proof point of our dedication to maintaining reputable supply chain relationships and meeting the evolving needs of brands in the Asia Pacific market," said Carlos Baila, President, Asia Pacific at Crown.
"We are committed to operating ethically and remaining accountable to our own standards, as well as those of our partners, as we continue to serve customers around the world."
"We are proud to have two of our facilities in Thailand join their peers in Brazil and Mexico to achieve this certification," said Martyn Goodchild, Senior Vice President of Manufacturing, Asia Pacific at Crown.
"It reflects strong collaboration among our employees and proves how activities taking place on a regional level can help accomplish the Company's larger sustainability goals."
Crown is working to obtain ASI certification for its operations in Asia, Europe, and the Middle East as part of its efforts to expand its responsible and ethical sourcing program.
"We warmly congratulate Crown Holdings, Inc. for achieving Performance Standard Certification at two of its plants in Thailand," said Fiona Solomon, Chief Executive Officer at ASI.
"By training employees around vital sustainability areas such as biodiversity, safety, and human rights, Crown is driving positive change within its operations. Through this latest Certification in Thailand, Crown is extending its commitment to responsible practices and we look forward to the Company's continued pursuit of ASI Certification across its global operations."
ASI is a non-profit standards and certification organization that operates globally and involves multiple stakeholders. Its goal is to maximize the contribution of aluminum to a sustainable society. LiberoAssurance, an independent third-party, conducted the audit of Crown’s facilities in Thailand.
