Our vision is to lead the transition to a closed-loop zinc alloy industry with the lowest environmental impact, together with our stakeholders. We firmly believe that this collaborative approach can accelerate the transition towards a more sustainable future.
REAZN proposes closed-loop solutions to facilitate the stream from industrial by‑products to ready-to-use alloys. We offer a logistical service to our customers providing closing-the-loop-boxes for collection of the materials to be recycled.
Another objective of REAZN is to recover zinc units from post-consumer goods. This will help further reduce the use of resource inputs and partly prevent the disposal of demolition and household waste.

REAZN upcycles zinc-containing industrial by-products and post-consumer scrap into high-quality zinc alloys, reducing the environmental impact. Ultimately, this results in fewer mining and transportation activities, saving resources and reducing the industry's carbon footprint.
REAZN provides a variety of Zamak alloys in different shapes, from standard to customized. REAZN's zinc alloys are notable for their impressive recycling rate of 80 % to 100 %, achieved through cooperation with their extensive network supplying them zinc scrap.
Zinc alloys, particularly Zamak, are preferred due to their low melting temperature, high-pressure injection, high cycle rate, and full recyclability. These features give the die-cast parts outstanding characteristics. Notably, their excellent fluidity allows for the creation of complex designs with high precision.
Zinc is an essential element in our daily lives, playing a key role in the production of various items such as building and furniture fittings, automotive components, consumer electronics, toys and household appliances. Zinc die castings have a positive impact on our everyday life.
Zinc die casting parts are renowned for their durability. These robust components are commonly found in various everyday items. Thanks to their exceptional longevity, they often remain functional for many years. However, what occurs when they have served their intended purpose?
REAZN offers closed-loop solutions for transforming industrial by-products into ready-to-use alloys and provides the necessary logistical services for material collection. Additionally, REAZN aims to recover zinc from post-consumer goods, which helps to reduce resource inputs and prevent waste disposal.
Recycling is a key component of modern waste reduction. By upcycling zinc containing by‑products from the industry into prime grade alloys, REAZN contributes to minimizing the environmental impact of zinc use by reducing the dependency on zinc metal produced from ores. Mining and transporting less ores helps saving natural resources and lowering the carbon footprint for the whole industry. Every by‑product of our recycling process can be used as raw material in another industrial application which means that REAZN generates no waste requiring landfill disposal.
Along with lower CO₂ emissions, REAZN aims for less waste and lower energy consumption. Our circular economy model enables us to produce zinc alloys with an extremely low carbon footprint. The use of 100 % secondary raw materials for our zinc alloy production reduces the CO₂ footprint by up to 97.5 % compared to benchmark data from primary production. The recurring processing and melting of high-quality secondary raw material relativizes the overall balance for the environmental impact of extracted zinc from ores and permits comprehensive savings of energy as well as an extreme reduction of resulting greenhouse-gas emissions. But how exactly can we determine the actual carbon footprint in zinc alloy production?
With the same goal of reducing emissions in production and increasing energy efficiency, REAZN also installed a new filter unit in March 2022, continuously contributing to minimizing the environmental impact on our planet.
REAZN is well aware of the responsibilities and obligations of a corporate organization in today’s world. We are certified according to ISO 50001:2018, ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 and our management is promoting a constant improvement in line with the respective guidelines.
The companies of the REAZN GROUP fulfill all applicable legal obligations under following regulations: the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS) 1 and 2, the Waste Electrical and Electronical Directive (WEEE), the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of chemicals (CLP), the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), “conflict minerals” provision, Modern Slavery Act 2015 and European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR). We have subscribed a membership to both EcoVadis and the UN Global Compact initiative.
The world still needs metal originating from mines and will always have to. However, the ecological resilience also asks for a reasonable consumption of its non-renewable resources. For REAZN, the crucial mines of the future are the anthropogenic resources, when recycling zinc units at the end of the product lifecycle is essential.
We are committed to our core values: innovation, quality, reliability, safety, service and sustainability. We are driven to set new standards for zinc alloys by changing the perception of secondary material and promoting the concept of recycling in zinc. That’s REAZN!
