Top five aluminium extrusion companies in the world

Aluminium extrusion is one of the most popular forms of aluminium products. Extruded aluminium products are being used worldwide every day in innovative application areas. The possibilities for using aluminium profiles have no bounds. They are used for their strength, flexibility, durability and sustainability in several end-user sectors such as construction, transportation,
electrical, machinery and consumer durables. They are 100% recyclable and the processing is easy and emits little hazardous gasses.

ADTECH is one pioneer followed by the International Enterprise, which keeps focusing on the manufacture of metallurgical.

Top five aluminium extrusion companies in the world

Aluminium extrusion is replacing steel in the transport and construction sector mostly for its lightweight and corrosion resistance quality along with infinite recyclability. The building and construction segment is the biggest market for aluminium extrusion.

About 65% of the aluminium content in construction is estimated to be recycled annually. Its usage in building and construction is expected to increase in doors, windows, panels, windows frames, ladders, and bridges in the near term.
Here is a list of the top five leading aluminium extrusion manufacturers in the world. The list is based on sales volumes and industry coverage and is dynamic depending on changing market conditions.

It is to be noted that with the increasing number of new suppliers entering the market, the market share for these top manufacturers is dropping. Several companies are merging for better sales realization and the market dynamics keep changing. The growth potential for aluminium extrusion is huge and more and more companies are venturing into the segment to leverage upon the opportunities.
