The aluminium company based in Atlanta, Georgia, has announced its plans to open an aluminium plant in Kentucky.
The cost of the construction is anticipated to reach US$300mn, with the site having a 200,000 metric tonne capacity, and employing 125 people.
The plant will produce flat rolled aluminium – which is often used by automakers when designing lighter vehicles for fuel efficiency.
The facility will feature heat treatment and pre-treatment facilities, to be used for aluminium preparation for vehicle parts, such as hoods and doors.
