AA reported it has been awarded a new multi-year supply agreement with Airbus for aluminum sheet and plate products utilizing Alcoa’s current and advanced-generation aluminum alloys.
Airbus is a leading aircraft manufacturer, with the most modern and comprehensive aircraft family.
Terms were not disclosed, but the agreement has a value of approximately one billion over its life.
Alcoa’s leading aluminum solutions will be used across virtually all Airbus commercial aircraft programs, from short-range/single-aisle to long-haul/twin-aisle jets including the A380 and range from fuselage panels to structural components to Airbus’ newest wing skins.
Alcoa’s aerospace business comprises 4 units with operations across the world totaling approximately $3 billion in revenues and #1 share positions in their markets: Alcoa Global Rolled Products and Alcoa Forgings and Extrusions serving the structures market; and Alcoa Fastening Systems and Alcoa Power and Propulsion. Alcoa’s aerospace solutions run from nose to tail and from wing-tip to wing-tip.
Also, Alcoa recently announced that its three aluminum smelters in Quebec, Canada, have been recognized by Hydro-Quebec for their energy efficiency, and are members of the power company’s select Energy Savers’ Circle network.
Established in 2005, Hydro-Quebec’s Energy Savers' Circle has more than 50 members, all leaders in energy efficiency. The circle brings together Hydro-Quebec's large power customers that have reduced their electricity usage by at least 5% or saved at least 50 million kWh.
Alcoa previously launched a new portfolio of new metallic solutions – including its third-generation aluminum-lithium alloys; hybrid aerostructures; low-aerodynamic drag, self-cleaning skin sheet – that will enable the development and production of new short-range aircraft which meet or exceed airframer targets for corrosion resistance, aerodynamic drag, maintenance requirements, and fuel efficiency, along with improved buy-to-fly ratios. These solutions are expected to provide up to 10% in weight savings over composite-intensive aircraft, while lowering their cost to manufacture, operate and repair by up to 30%.
In addition to inventing the modern-day aluminum industry, Alcoa innovation has been behind major milestones in the aerospace, automotive, packaging, building and construction, commercial transportation, consumer electronics and industrial markets over the past 120 years.
