EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM)

Understanding CBAM: A Shift Toward Full Life Cycle Carbon Evaluation

The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is not just a carbon tax. It represents a comprehensive system that evaluates carbon emissions across the entire product life cycle. In the metal industry, scrap metal recycling is emerging as the most immediate and effective solution for reducing carbon emissions.

Dong-A Special Metals Co., Ltd. has built a solid technological foundation in sorting and processing high-value alloy scrap such as titanium and nickel. This capability enables us to produce high-purity materials without relying on carbon-intensive raw materials—an advantage that enhances our CBAM resilience when exporting to Europe.


Carbon Footprint Traceability: The New Priority

Responding to CBAM requires more than just carbon offset purchases. Traceability of the carbon footprint—from scrap collection to sorting—is essential. Dong-A Special Metals is preparing for future CBAM audits by developing a robust data-tracking system across all scrap-processing stages.

In the long term, the introduction of a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) system will provide quantified evidence of carbon reduction, positioning us as a trusted partner for carbon-transparent supply chains.


Our Scrap-Based Process: Cleaner, Smarter, and Greener

Our company uses an advanced lightweight processing method that separates high-purity scrap and supplies it directly as a material—without re-melting or refining. This significantly reduces power consumption and carbon emissions compared to primary metal production.

For instance, we can extract high-purity raw materials from nickel-molybdenum alloys like Hastelloy C-276 and Inconel series. These materials are not only environmentally friendlier than imported concentrates, but also align with the EU’s push for decarbonized industrial inputs.


Titanium Scrap: A Key to Carbon-Neutral Manufacturing

Titanium manufacturing is typically energy-intensive, involving high temperatures and the use of carbon-heavy reducing agents like magnesium or sodium. However, recycling titanium scrap can reduce carbon emissions by 70–90%.

Dong-A Special Metals can process high-purity scrap from medical and aerospace alloys such as CP Grade, Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5), and Grade 23. Through selective remelting, we deliver carbon-neutral titanium products, enhancing export competitiveness under CBAM.


Strategic Metal Recycling: Aligning with CBAM and the IRA

Nickel, molybdenum, and cobalt are critical materials facing global supply instability. They are also subject to clean supply chain regulations under the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and CBAM. Dong-A Special Metals offers precise chemical analysis and recovery of high-alloy scrap based on nickel and molybdenum content, meeting industrial-grade purity standards.

This allows us not only to replace imports but also to be recognized as a provider of “circular high-grade alloy materials” in European and North American markets.


CBAM Is a Decarbonization Competitiveness Test—Are You Ready?

CBAM is not merely a trade regulation; it is a test of carbon reduction performance. Dong-A Special Metals is actively building its status as a low-carbon supply chain partner. By integrating LCA-based data, achieving recycled material certifications, and offering customers customized carbon performance reports, we are taking the lead in the new era of green trade.
