What is Aluminum?

Aluminum is a truly versatile material. The variety of forms it can take and available finishes allow the creation of a wide range of products that form part of our daily lives.

In the doors and windows of your house, in your deodorant, in soft drink cans; aluminum is present in all of them.

Aluminum is a unique metal in that it is strong, lightweight, durable, does not rust and above all, it is 100% recyclable.

It is a good conductor of electricity (one kilogram of aluminum cable can carry twice the electricity as a kilogram of copper cable), and many underground transmission lines are aluminum. Aluminum transmits and reflects radiant heat, making it an excellent material for producing kitchen utensils, radiators and building insulation. Its strength, combined with its low density, makes it ideal for transportation and packing applications.

How is aluminum made?

Aluminum is not found in nature in the form that we know it, since it is the product of an alloy. Bauxite is a rock found in nature from which alumina is extracted in the form of a white powder. This powder is then mixed with cryolite, another naturally found halide, and these two materials are combined using electricity and as a result produce aluminum as we know it.
