7 The Aluminum Association, founded in 1933, represents U.S. and foreign-based primary producers of aluminum, as well as recyclers, and producers of semi-fabricated products, foundries, distributors and suppliers. Member companies operate roughly 170 plants in North America and many conduct business worldwide. Statistical Reports and Publications The Aluminum Association's statistical programs provide industry information on primary aluminum production, new orders of mill products, industry shipments, end use market estimates, inventories, recycling and foreign trade on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis. Special surveys provide data on specific subjects such as primary capacity, flat roll capacity, inventories and castings shipments. Custom reports are available on a for-fee basis and Webinars may be scheduled by contacting the Association.
