The Australian Aluminium Council (AAC) is set to strengthen the nation's aluminium industry by incorporating the Australian Aluminium Extrusion Association (AAEA) into its membership and organisational framework. This strategic integration establishes a unified, independent advocacy body representing the entire aluminium sector in Australia.

This integration will strengthen the Australian Aluminium Council's mission to foster a greater understanding of the domestic and international aluminium industry. By uniting these organisations, the Council seeks to drive the growth and sustainability of Australia's aluminium sector.

As a cornerstone of the global transition to clean energy, aluminium is one of the most essential commodities. With its position as a leading producer of bauxite, alumina, and aluminium, Australia is well-equipped to meet the rising demand for the "Green Metal."

"The Council represents the industry from mine to market – and now with an even stronger focus on the downstream aluminium manufacturing sector in Australia. With a cohesive representation, the Council will continue its direct engagement with the Australian Government and platforms like the International Trade Remedies Forum to advocate in the face of uneven global competition," said Australian Aluminium Council's CEO, Marghanita Johnson.

However, ensuring the competitiveness of Australia's downstream manufacturers requires government support for free and fair trade. With the right policies, Australia's manufacturing sector can attract increased trade and investment, bolstering the aluminium industry's capacity to meet growing global needs.
