From Bauxite to Alumina

Jamalco’s strategic location allows us to efficiently serve the Atlantic alumina market while supplying our operations with a critical upstream raw material. Alumina from Jamalco can be found in products made with Natur-Al™, a low-carbon aluminum made exclusively by our smelter in Grundartangi, Iceland.
