The secondary aluminium industry turns molten aluminium ingots and recycled aluminium into usable alloy profiles and shapes that are further down the process extruded, cut or cast into end products such as cans, pans, car parts, airplane parts, personal computers etc.

Often the secondary aluminium industry adds other components to the liquid aluminium in order to achieve the desired alloy and its specifications.
