Constellium Supports 2 Million Cans Recycling Contest

Constellium is partnering with schools near its Muscle Shoals, Alabama and Ravenswood, West Virginia plants to join a recycling movement to collect empty aluminum beverage cans as part of the 
2 Million Cans Recycling Contest. Third grade students at L.E. Willson and Fairplain elementary schools will compete with schools in 12 states across the U.S. on a quest to keep aluminum cans out of landfills and ensure they are recycled into new cans. Now in its second year, the contest is an exciting partnership with Can Manufacturers Institute (CMI) and Recycling Is Like Magic! The competition, which runs October 1, 2024 through April 30, 2025, aims to inspire environmental awareness, hands-on learning, teamwork, and community engagement with young learners.
