What is the size of Hulamin’s operations?
In 2000, Hulamin commissioned the R2.4 billion expansion programme, which grew its rolled products capacity from 50 000 tons to 210 000 tons per annum. This expansion resulted in expanded manufacturing processes from new and upgraded equipment and has improved capability, quality, and cost competitiveness, not only in the local market but also in niche markets across the globe. In October 2006, a R950 million project was approved to further grow volumes of high value products and increase capacity to 250 000 tons by 2011. Hulamin also operates three manufacturing sites for aluminium extrusions in South Africa and is a leading producer for the South African market, particularly for transport and automotive sections.
