Why do we need aluminium packaging? Why does it make sense to collect aluminium packaging? Is a lot of energy needed for aluminium recycling? What sort of aluminium packaging should be collected? Should yoghurt tops, aluminium foil and aluminium tubes also go in the recycling bin? Does aluminium recycling in Switzerland really work? Where can I dispose of my aluminium packaging? What can I do if there is nowhere in my area for me to dispose of aluminium? Are drinks cans collected separately? What is a can-crusher? How can I get a crusher for aluminium drinks cans? What happens to all the household aluminium from my community? Where is all the scrap aluminium packaging recycled? Is salt slag produced during the recycling process? What sort of products are made from the recycled material? How many times can aluminium be recycled?
