We are CBA.
From the City of Alumínio to the aluminium in every city.
We produce aluminium from start to finish: we mine the bauxite, transform the metal and supply everything from ingots to processed products such as sheets and coils.
And we do all this sustainably.
We are self-sufficient in bauxite extraction, we produce all the electricity we use and we lead the sector in recycling.
And all this is to connect you with the world of opportunities that aluminium can offer.
Aluminium is in the transport you travel on, the windows of your house, the cell phone or computer you are using right now. Lasting partnerships that transform raw material into everyday solutions.
We are very close to you.
