About the metal

What is Aluminum?

Aluminum is the most abundant metal in the Earth's crust and the second most consumed industrial metal worldwide. It is light, strong, corrosion-resistant, and infinitely recyclable, with smelting being one of the most electricity-intensive industrial processes — making aluminum prices closely tied to power costs. Spot aluminum is quoted on the London Metal Exchange.
