Alro produces primary aluminium products such as wire rod, billets, slabs, foundry alloys and ingots as well as processed aluminium products such as aluminium plates from soft, medium and hard alloys including non heat-treated plates as well as heat-treated plates, sheets, coils, tread plates, embossed sheets and coils, corrugated and heat treated sheets and extrusions.

Wire rod is used for high-voltage electric cables and wires in general, which are further processed into end-products such as power cables and conductors. Our billets are used for the extrusion process to make profiles. Slabs are mostly used as feedstock for our hot rolling mill for further processing.

Flat rolled products are graded by thickness and include coils, sheets and plates. These products are further used by customers to produce end-products, such as boxes, panels, mechanical parts, tools, moulds and white goods; these are products in which aluminium’s good mechanical and corrosion characteristics are advantageous and for which the low weight of the material plays an essential role.

Delivering a client-driven range of products Alro is transforming from being primarily a commodity supplier to a value-added manufacturer. We are committed to working closely with our customers in order to develop new products. Discussions are being held with leading aircraft manufacturers to assess their future needs.
