Dutch aluminium firm, Constellium N.V. (NYSE and Euronext Paris: CSTM) has installed a new recycling furnace at its Muscle Shoals, Alabama facility in an effort to expand recycling capabilities in North America.

The company said that the furnace, which is now operational, is expected to increase the total recycling output by 170 million pounds (77,000 metric tonnes), or around 5.2 billion recycled used beverage cans per year.

Following the upgrade the plant is expected to recycle the equivalent of nearly 20 billion cans per year – almost one-fifth of the cans sold in the United States.
