The meaning behind the synergy
"Reframing resources” and “Thinking in life cycles” are slogans that truly encapsulate our mission and the innovative approach we take to minimize emissions with our RIVOS products. They are not just catchy phrases but they represent our commitment to a sustainable future through responsible resource management and lifecycle thinking.
The secret behind our RIVOS products lies in a threefold synergy effect that sets us apart in the industry. The first two are a high proportion of external scrap and low-carbon primary metal, both significantly lowering our footprint. The third element is leveraging regional conditions to generate resource-efficient and sustainable energy. In Norway, for instance, we harness the power of fjords and waterfalls to produce hydropower, a clean and renewable energy source for our production processes. The inspiration for the name RIVOS, derived from the Latin word for ‘river’, reflects this deep connection to responsible energy use.
Through these integrated efforts, we aim to lead the way in sustainable aluminium production without compromises in quality. RIVOS isn’t just a product label. It’s a testament to our dedication to creating a circular world that works.
