With over 120 years of experience in the aluminium industry, Alcoa is the undisputed global leader in the production and management of primary and fabricated aluminium. FOCUS explores the past, present and future of this pioneering company.
The production and application of aluminium has changed significantly during the last 20 years. Designers and fabricators have learned difficult lessons about the ways in which the metal should โ and shouldnโt โ be used. FOCUS examines some of them.

GG VAN ROOYEN tracks aluminiumโs rocky road to success.
