The Oinofyta plant produces a diverse range of aluminium alloys tailored for use in the following industries:
The manufacturing process for aluminium coil and sheet production, involves the following key stages:
Aluminium alloying and casting: slabs are produced at a thickness of 0.6 m, up to 2.5 m wide and up to 9 m long
Hot rolling: the slab is reshaped into coils a few millimetres thick
Continuous casting: molten aluminium is cast directly into coils a few millimetres thick, serving as an alternative to the alloying and hot rolling stages
Cold rolling: coils are further processed to achieve the specified thickness for end products
Thermal processing: Intermediate or final heat treatments are applied to adjust product properties such as hardness for further processing
Surface coating or processing: the aluminium coil surface is treated (e.g., lacquered finishes)
Cutting: mother coils are cut into strips or sheets using specialised equipment
Packaging: end products are securely packaged in pallets with advanced materials to ensure protection until their final use.
Elval is committed to continuous improvement through strategic investments in technology, capacity, state-of-the-art equipment and responsible production.
