Alcoa segments that sell products to this market: Flat-Rolled Products, Packaging and Consumer Products

Alcoa's packaging and consumer products revenues are primarily from sales of beverage can sheet, bottle closures, flexible packaging, packaging machinery, and foodservice packaging, including Reynolds Wrap® and other Reynolds-brand products.

U. S. shipments of aluminum cans in 2001 held even with 2000 at about 100 billion units.

Alcoa Consumer Products increased the production capacities outside the U.S. of its Reynolds-branded products, which saw significant growth during 2001 in South America, Africa, Eastern Europe and Southeast Asia.

Innovative new aluminum bottles in Japan are expected to double sales to about a billion units over the next 2-3 years. Alcoa closures are used on these bottles. Industrial Information Resources Inc.
