The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) in 2022 reported that plastic waste generated per person in Japan and South Korea was 69 kilograms per person per annum. Hence, to reduce the accumulation of plastics in oceans, beverage manufacturers in Japan have decided to replace plastic bottles with aluminum cans as a counteractive measure in the fight against marine plastic pollution in the country.
In December 2022, ABC, Artemira Co., Ltd., and MA Aluminum Corporation collaborated to manufacture three packaging alternatives entirely from recycled aluminum. The use of recycled aluminum to replace the existing plastic bottles in Japan is expected to generate increased old aluminum scrap.
Hence, the shift from plastic bottles to aluminum cans is driving scrap generation in the country. Moreover, metal recycling companies are investing in new aluminum recycling ventures. In November 2023, a joint investment venture, namely Toyotsu Sotec was announced by Toyotsu Materials (a subsidiary of Toyota Tsusho Corporation) and non-ferrous scrap company, Sanko Saitama.
