Aluminium Bahrain B.S.C. (Alba)'s resolve to consolidate its commitment to the growing US aluminium market provided one of the key motivations behind its membership of the Aluminium Extruders Council - the premier association for extrusion companies and suppliers in the US.

Alba's membership to this community of over 100 major North American extrusion companies will enable the company to participate in the vibrant exchange of technical and commercial information as well as contribute its longstanding knowledge and expertise in the production of high quality value added aluminium.

As a member, Alba will have the additional benefit of taking part in training sessions, online programmes, seminars and conferences to learn of emerging technologies and industry trends and strengthen networking opportunities. Alba's Sales & Marketing Manager (Europe/Americas), Boris Santosi and Metallurgy & Customer Technical Assistance Manager, Garry Martin attended the 2013 Annual Meeting & Leadership Conference of the Aluminum Extruders Council that took place at Orlando, Florida, USA from March 14 - 16, 2013.

Commenting on Alba's membership to the Aluminum Extruders Council, the company's Chief Marketing Executive, Jean Baptiste Lucas said:

"As a company with a forty year legacy, we have always recognised the significance of membership to trade bodies like the Aluminum Extruders Council in knowledge exchange, in networking opportunities and in bolstering our presence across diverse territories. We are confident that this membership will further serve to enhance our growth strategy in the important North American market, and also, contribute towards expanding our understanding of new and emerging technologies in further improving our products."

The Aluminum Extruders Council is an international association dedicated to helping manufacturers, engineers, architects and others to discover why aluminium extrusion is the preferred material process for better products. Since 1950, it has served the industry by providing opportunities to network with peers and suppliers, address common internal and external issues, share data, train, and sponsor research; work together in enabling members to function more efficiently, cost-effectively and knowledgeably; and, enhancing the growth of the aluminium extrusion industry by promoting the advantages of the processes and product applications.
