Our aluminum products start with the mining of bauxite ore, which is the primary source of aluminum. Bauxite is a rock that is rich in aluminum hydroxide minerals and it’s found in our mining area (at Zambia). After the bauxite is mined, it is transported to a refining facility where it undergoes a process called the Bayer process. This process involves dissolving the aluminum hydroxide in the bauxite ore in a solution of caustic soda, which results in the production of aluminum hydroxide and red mud, a waste product. The aluminum hydroxide is then converted into aluminum metal through the electrolytic process known as the Hall-Héroult process. In this process, the aluminum hydroxide is melted and passed over a negatively charged anode, where it loses oxygen and becomes aluminum metal. The aluminum metal is then cast into large blocks called ingots.

We transport ingots to any aluminum product manufacturers who will press an order, where they can transform into various products.
