Alumina Production: A World Leader in Innovation and Sustainability
Code: 11329. With a history that dates back to 1886, the company revolutionized the aluminum industry by making this metal accessible and essential to modern life.
Today, it is recognized as the world's leading independent alumina producer, with an installed capacity of 17 million metric tons per year. Its six refineries, located in Australia, Brazil and Spain, are strategically positioned to serve growing markets such as Asia and the Middle East.
Metallurgical Alumina: The Basis for the Production of High-Quality Aluminum
The company primarily produces metallurgical-grade alumina, which is essential in the production of aluminum metal. This product, characterized by a white, crystalline consistency similar to sand, is essential for obtaining pure, high-quality aluminum, used in numerous industrial and consumer applications.
Non-Metallurgical Alumina: Versatility for Industrial Applications
In addition to metallurgical alumina, the company produces nonmetallurgical alumina, which is sold for a variety of industrial applications. This type of alumina is used in areas such as water purification and refractory materials production, due to its superior chemical and physical properties.
