The Aluminum Sheet Plate & Foil Manufacturing industry involves the production of flat-rolled aluminum products, including sheets, plates, and foils. These products are used in a wide range of applications, such as packaging, transportation, construction, and consumer goods. The manufacturing process typically involves casting molten aluminum into large ingots, which are then rolled into thin sheets or plates. Foil is produced by further rolling the sheets to a thickness of less than 0.2 millimeters. The industry is highly capital-intensive and requires significant investment in equipment and technology to remain competitive.
