history

Aluminum Norf GmbH was founded in April 1965 as a joint venture between the former Alcan (today Novelis) and the then United Aluminum Works (today: Hydro Aluminum). As a result, the largest aluminum rolling and melting plant in Europe at the time for processing aluminum into strips and sheets was created in Norf bei Neuss. With the largest expansion between 1990 and 1994, Aluminum Norf GmbH - AluNorf for short - became the largest aluminum rolling and melting plant in the world.
