Beside us through a multitude of applications,
aluminium accompanies us at every step of our life.
Since aluminium was first commercially produced over 115 years
ago, its unique combination of properties
has enabled designers and manufacturers to develop products
that enhance the quality of life. Many applications in transport,
medicine, food preservation and electricity distribution would
not have been possible if a material with aluminium’s
high strength-to-weight characteristic, outstanding barrier
properties, good conductivity and corrosion resistance had
not been available.
