Alcan is a dynamic, multicultural organization
and a leading advocate for promoting sustainability as the
key to value creation and long-term growth. As a supplier
of raw materials – bauxite, alumina and aluminum –
and a producer of finished products – engineered and
packaging – Alcan maintains predominant positions in
the major market regions of the Americas, Europe and Asia.
With Maximizing Value as its governing objective, Alcan began
implementing its Alcan Integrated Management System (AIMS)
in 2004 to ensure that the same focus on value-based management,
continuous improvement and environment, health and safety
is found in each of the Company's operations, regardless of
business focus or geographic location. AIMS facilitates the
sharing of best practices and reinforces Alcan's capacity
to be the best in its chosen businesses.
Alcan has more than 500 operating facilities in 55 countries
and regions with some 70,000 employees. Operations are organized
in four business groups: Bauxite
and Alumina, Primary
Metal, Engineered
Products, and Packaging.
Headquartered in Montreal, Canada, Alcan is a public company
