Performance 2030

We are maximizing our multimetal yields.

Innovation is the driving force that will keep us at the forefront tomorrow. We invest in forward-looking technologies and develop innovative methods to advance the processing of complex, high-margin materials and intermediates in our smelting network. By improving impurity management in smelting processes, we can handle more valuable input materials and increase minor metal production. This allows us to boost multimetal yields overall, expand our product portfolio, and create new growth opportunities.

Exceptional product quality through innovative process optimization

By improving the quality of standard products, Aurubis is tapping into higher-margin market segments. We are committed to achieving premium quality standards across 100 % of our production.

Premium quality as the new standard

Additional purification steps mean our premium products already contain fewer impurities today, making them especially attractive to our industry customers. While we previously offered both standard and premium products, we now aim to deliver exclusively premium quality across our entire output in the future. This shift creates added value for our customers and opens access to higher margins.
