Aluminum Rolled Products Global Market Report 2024

Aluminum rolled products refer to items manufactured through a process where cast aluminum slabs undergo metal procedures to make them suitable for further processing. This processing involves forming plates or sheets through cold and hot rolling processes, resulting in products with durable, high-strength, and lightweight characteristics.

The primary products of aluminum rolled products include foil, plate, and sheet. Aluminum plates are created when aluminum billets are passed between high-pressure rollers, typically having a thickness of about 0.250” and above. These plates are commonly used for heavy-duty applications. Aluminum rolled products come in various grades, including the 1xxx series, 3xxx series, 5xxx series, and 6xxx series, and find applications in automotive and transportation, building and infrastructure, packaging, consumer durables, and other industries.
