Nickelhütte Aue is deeply rooted in the region, and sport plays a special role here. We support this to the best of our ability. From top-class sport and popular sport in the company’s SG Nickelhütte Aue sports association and sponsorship of FC Erzgebirge Aue to the support of social projects. Because responsibility does not end at the factory gate.
Everyone is talking about the future of the planet and what needs to be done so that future generations will continue to have access to resources and raw materials. We are acting. That’s because the recycling of metals and electronic waste makes an active contribution to climate protection. As a result, millions of tonnes of CO₂ emissions are avoided each year.
