With 5 plants among Asia, Europe and Latin America, Alcoa Global Foil supplies aluminum foil, in gauges ranging from 6.30 to 200 microns, for key segments around the globe including automotive, building & construction, commercial transportation, industrial, consumer durables and packaging.
Aluminum foil is the ideal material for wrapping and protecting food from air, humidity, light and micro-organisms as well preserving vitamins, taste and freshness, being largely used by flexible packaging converters for aseptic, pharmaceutical (pharma: blister & strip) and food packaging as well a variety of food packaging applications such as semi-rigid container, lids, pouches and aluminum foil wrap (HHF: household foil).
It is also used in industrial products such as heat exchangers, air conditioning, flexible tubes, insulation and decorative applications because of a high thermal conductivity, malleability and recyclability (fully recyclable). |
