La posición del Gobierno de España ante esta coyuntura es clara y consistente. La misma que hemos mantenido en Ucrania y Gaza.
No a la quiebra de un derecho internacional que nos protege a todos, especialmente a la población civil.
No a asumir que el mundo solo puede resolver sus problemas a base de bombas.
No repitamos los errores del pasado.
NO A LA GUERRA.
🏗️ How can aluminium drive the EU’s green goals in construction?
Our two Building Board meetings over the past week tackled this topic, focusing on compliance with the upcoming Construction Products Regulation and the new Energy Performance of Buildings Directive.
Key policy priorities include:
✅ Harmonising Environmental Product Declarations to support the declaration of environmental impacts under the Construction Products Regulation.
✅ Disclosing the lifecycle global warming potential of new buildings under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive in a way that stimulates the use of recyclable materials and design for recycling.
We also had a great visit to Kamp-C, the Centre for Sustainability & Innovation in Antwerp, where we discussed reducing material use and designing construction products for reuse. ♻️🏗️

🚀 Exciting news from the @Europarl_EN ! 🚀
The revised Construction Products Regulation (#CPR) has been presented during the European Parliament Plenary Session and was approved by a wide majority! This significant development paves the way for harmonised conditions in the marketing of construction products, also with a focus on environmental sustainability aspects. 🏗️🌱
Once published on the Official Journal of the EU, the new Regulation will bring about crucial changes, shaping the future of construction practices across Europe. 💼

Our team had the opportunity to visit the TRIMET Aluminium SE’s plant in Essen, Germany 🚌
We dived into the world of #aluminium production, observing manufacturing process of extrusion billets, rolling ingots, and primary die casting alloys first-hand. This kind of primary production is highly needed to build a strong supply of aluminium #madeinEurope.
A heartfelt thank you to Philipp Schlüter, CEO of TRIMET and chair of European Aluminium, for extending the invitation to our team. These practical experiences fuel our commitment to advancing the aluminium industry in Europe.
Looking forward to continued collaboration and growth in this dynamic sector! 🌟💼

Soon back home after two full days at #BAU2023: absolutely impressed by the quality of
@EU_Aluminium 's members booths! Great design, great attendance and great people!
Yesterday, Prof. Federico Mazzolani chaired his last meeting of CEN TC250 SC9. Over the last years, he has successfully guided the work towards the completion of the new Eurocode 9 on design of aluminum structures, to be soon published by @Standards4EU. Thank you Prof. Mazzolani!
The voluntary route to CE marking offered by @eota_eu is a valuable tool for the #aluminium construction industry as it gives access to the single 🇪🇺 market to innovative aluminium construction solutions such as structural glazing & ventilated façade systems.

📍Brussels @EURACTIV
@EPPGroup@Doleschal@pascal_arimont@Andreas_Schwab@EU_Growth@EU_Aluminium@BernardGilmont We stressed on the need to reduce burdens for SMEs by:
▪️recognizing the role of 'system providers'
▪️ fine-tuning 'cascading' & reintroducing the 'sharing' procedures
to allow the functioning of the value chain for key products like windows and keep down the costs for testing
At the @EPPGroup hearing on the revision of the Construction Products Regulation. Many ideas on the table to discuss about sustainability and the functioning of the EU internal market for construction products. Our contribution below ⬇️
