As the 12th largest employer in Hungary and a major contributor to the community, Alcoa is recognized as an active participant in the country's successful transformation to a market-based economy. We first entered Hungary in 1993 by acquiring the state-owned Light Metal Works of Székesfehervár, now known as Alcoa-Köfém Kft. Today, we have four business investments operating in the country that produce and export innovative products and solutions for the aluminium ingot, packaging, automotive and industrial markets. These include rolling ingots, flat rolled products, automotive structures, truck bodies, wire harnesses, and wheels for trucks, trailers and buses. Highlights of the recognitions we have received include the 2001 and 2002 Business World for the Environment national award from the Hungarian Business Leaders Forum and the Business Ethical Award from the Budapest Club in 2001. |
