Champions of Sustainable IndustryGFG Alliance in brief

ALLIANCE

1www.gfgalliance.com

A sustainable future for industry and societyThe GFG Alliance is an international alliance of independent companies that work for tomorrow’s generations as much as for today’s. On a planet of limited resources, rising population and cycles of prosperity and recession, we place great emphasis on making our enterprises both resilient and sustainable.

For more than 60 years we’ve operated in sectors that are fundamental to the economy: energy, metals, engineering, logistics, and more recently infrastructure, financial services, property and mining. We’ve always sought to add value to these industries by doing things differently, and that remains the prevailing spirit of our companies today.

At the heart of the GFG Alliance approach is our focus on integrating and innovating to deliver value throughout the process; from the renewable energy that recycles metal in our furnaces and mills, and the precision engineering in our manufacturing plants, to the industry-friendly financial services that enable trade and invigorate the whole business environment in which we operate.

With a range of physical assets and human resources spanning over 30 countries and over 200 sites, our business is constantly growing and evolving in pursuit of our corporate vision. Our ability to deliver that vision is defined not only by the size of our operation, but by the quality of our people. We recruit the best, safeguard people and skills, and then invest to ensure they continue to grow as we do.

We have an industrial heritage that stretches back many decades but more importantly, we have an inspiring vision that delivers a smarter, more sustainable and viable future for both industry and society. It is a vision that will ensure we continue to push the boundaries and deliver for many decades to come.

With capabilities spanning commodities trading, recycling, energy, mining, steel and aluminium manufacture, advanced engineering, as well as financial and property services, the Alliance members are individually owned and managed but collectively offer decades of expertise that delivers a strong competitive edge across the value chain.

Their common purpose is the regrowth of industry and the strategy for delivering this vision is called decoupled integration. Through this approach each

of the GFG Alliance businesses is integrated to serve the other parts of the group while also delivering for their external customers. The model enables economic value creation for the core industrial group with the full benefits of integration while ensuring each business operates in an agile way enabling independent growth.

Aluminium

GFG Alliance has a growth strategy in aluminium as a core product in its portfolio and sees an opportunity in adding value to aluminium for the benefit of customers and communities.

The GFG Alliance’s vision for re-establishing metals manufacturing in the UK recently resulted in the re-birth of the British Aluminium brand. With the support of the Scottish Government, the Alliance acquired the last primary aluminium smelter in the country, based in Fort William. The facility currently manufactures 48,000 tonnes of slab and sow every year and is powered by hydropower and biofuel energy, making it one of the greenest metal production plants in the world.

In addition to serving the international market with semi-finished aluminium, the Alliance is also investing to upgrade the smelter and has recently been granted planning permission to build a brand new facility for the production of aluminium wheels. When fully constructed, the state of the art plant will be the

only UK based site of this type and will manufacture products for the UK and European automotive industry. It will complement the Alliance’s current downstream aluminium capabilities which include 4 aluminium die casting operations and an aluminium pressings facility, serving the same market.

As a further step in growing its aluminium portfolio, in January 2018 the GFG Alliance industrial arm Liberty House also agreed with Rio Tinto to acquire the largest European aluminium smelter based at Dunkirk. Plans for the smelter include both serving existing customers with aluminium slab and ingots, as well as working with all stakeholders to develop downstream manufacturing activities to serve the growing European automotive market.
