Crown Holdings, Inc., has received industry certification for its successful sustainability measures in its Mexican beverage can operations.

The recognition to the Yardley manufacturer comes from the Aluminum Stewardship Initiative (ASI), a global, nonprofit, standards-setting and certification organization working toward a sustainable aluminum industry.

Crown Mexico is now a verified, responsible producer of aluminum, honored for best practices in production, sourcing, and stewardship of the metal.

The distinction underscores Crown’s ongoing commitment to operate as a responsible organization across its global footprint. Further, it represents delivery on the goals of its ambitious Twentyby30 sustainability program.

“Mexico is an important country within Crown’s extensive global footprint,” said Eduardo Argueta, President of Crown Mexico. “It is our duty to help uphold sustainability standards and to support the collective progress of our organization. We are proud to demonstrate our commitment by receiving certification from ASI, which validates our processes and practices and reflects our commitment to ethics.”

The recent certification from ASI is the result of multifaceted Crown Holdings efforts that include:

• Creation of a biodiversity protection plan and human rights due diligence process
• Participation in the Mexican metal-container industry group CANAFEM
• Active commitment and participation in ASI audits
