Next month is an important time on the Alcoa calendar with our annual Month of Servicethat celebrates the volunteering activities of our employees around the globe. Our people are also reducing their personal greenhouse footprint with our fantastic Make an Impact program which is destined for a community roll out soon - we'll keep you informed.

the handy screw cap – and it all starts with dirt
It’s not hard to see why the aluminium wine screw cap is growing in pop- ularity. And since alumin- ium all starts with dirt, we thought you'd be interested in the 30th birth- day of our Huntly bauxite mine.
A $100 million upgrade at Portland Aluminium will reduce our environmental impact – while in WA we’ve renewed our commitment to environmental improvement with the release of our latest Environmental Improvement Plans.
Alcoa and WA's Murdoch University have teamed up to tackle water management head on, while in Victoria we are working with Barwon Water on sustainable water solutions.
Alcoa’s partnership with the Garvan Institute is helping employees take control of their personal health - while right across the country our people are making an impact on their greenhouse footprint.
