Description:

Aluminium plays a majorrole in the modern world through its innumerable forms of applications- fromkitchen ware to electric conductors and from railway wagon to Appollospacecraft. Because of its intrinsic and versatile properties of lightness,strength to weight ratio, corrosion resistance, electrical and thermalconductivity, non toxicity etc., a wide range of uses has opened up for thismetal. Aluminium as a packaging material is unmatched owing to its lightweight, hygienic and non-contamination which eventually results in longershelf-life of end products. Aluminium is an attractive material and there isstrong competition among the various aluminium producers with regard to productdevelopment, new solutions for customers and continuous cost reductions. On theindustrial side, aluminium is heavily used in electrical power transmission,machinery and equipment, and construction. Housing, in particular, makes heavyuse of the lightweight material as a substitute for steel and wood in doors,windows and siding. On the consumer side, aluminium is used in a variety ofretail products, including cans, packaging, air conditioners, furniture andvehicles. Aluminum also has the advantage of a practically infinite capacityfor recycling, making it a choice solution in terms of environmentalprotection. The use of secondary aluminum, employing rejects or aluminumproducts at the end of their life cycle, requires only 5% of the power requiredto produce the primary metal.
