        Dear Friends    

    Welcome to the Aluminium Company of Egypt (Egyptalum). Our smelter is nearby Luxor where Ramsis II and King Tut lived. Following their style, we believe in quality and progress. 

Quality of our products is assured through raw material, technology, management and above all, highly trained personnel. All this was confirmed by the ISO 9001 Certificate honored to Egyptalum in 1996.

Now, there are 8 potrooms in operation (Soderberg technology) and 4 potrooms ( point feeding Prebacked technology ), the current capacity now 195000 ton / year, 2 potrooms point feeding prebacked technology now under construction and will be in operation (50000 ton / year) at first quarter of 2004, to reach 245000 ton / year. Hot and cold rolling mills have been starting production since 1996 with capacity 60000 ton / year. The anode plant production facilities cover Egyptalum requirements and international market .
