history

Aluminum works Unna 2007

The establishment of the Aluminumwerk Unna AG goes back to the year 1914, when ten entrepreneurs from Unna got together and founded the Messingwerk Aktiengesellschaft. In 1915 production begins in the Unna plant, some of which are still in production today.

After the end of the Second World War, the metal aluminum gained in importance. In 1973 the company changes its name and operates now as Messing- und Leichtmetallwerk Unna AG.

At the end of the 1970s, the company concentrated entirely on the production of aluminum. The production of all other metals made by the aluminum plant was stopped. In 1979 it changed its name to today's name Aluminumwerk Unna AG. At the beginning of the 1980s, the aluminum works in Unna joined a group of extrusion plants and foundries, which was sold to the Austrian Austria Metall AG at the end of the 1980s .

At the end of the 1990s, Austria Metall AG decided to sell its shares in Aluminumwerk Unna AG. On January 1, 2000, she sold 72.7 percent of the shares to the then works council chairman Thomas Wiese and 25.1 percent to the company's employees.

The aluminum plant in Unna has been owned by the Chinese company Zhongwang since September 2017 .
