UAE aluminium giant EGA has big plans for US
Gulf News
|May 23, 2025
TO BUILD US' FIRST PRIMARY ALUMINIUM PLANT SINCE 1980
Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) is doubling down on its US plans.
Fresh from last year’s investment in the US recycling firm Spectro Alloys, EGA — the UAE’s biggest non-oil industrial heavyweight — now plans to launch full-scale production in the US by building the first primary aluminium plant since 1980.
The timing is notable, coming soon after the US raised import duties on aluminium and steel to 25 per cent. Even so, this marks one of EGA’s most significant moves in a key global market.
In an interview with Gulf News, Abdulnasser Bin Kalban, CEO, draws up the plan of action.
Will your US plant only cater to domestic demand?
The opportunity we are addressing with this project is to meet the significant unmet demand in the US for aluminium made in America. The US currently imports most of the aluminium it needs.
