Aditya Birla Group is a strong player in the metals and chemicals sector in the US through its businesses - Novelis and Aditya Birla Chemicals.

Novelis has offices in Atlanta, Kennesaw, Spokane, and Novi. The company also has 17 manufacturing units in the US. 

Novelis’ Ashville facility is an aluminium finishing site located just outside of Columbus, Ohio. Founded in 1971, it serves the Building & Construction and Commercial Transportation markets in partnership with Novelis’ sites in Uhrichsville, Ohio; Richmond, Virginia; and Lincolnshire, Illinois. The plant’s coating and slitting capabilities support end-use products ranging from tractor trailer sides, cargo trailers, and recreational vehicles, to gutters, downspouts, soffits, and fascia.

With approximately 20 percent of all aluminium cans recycled in the United States sent here, Berea is one of the world’s largest plants dedicated to aluminium can recycling. The site melts down its recycled cans to produce sheet ingots for use in the production of new aluminium beverage cans.

The Buckhannon facility was opened in 1999 to serve the electrical conductor industry and other light-gauge applications, primarily 1350 and 1100 alloy products. Since then, capabilities have expanded to include the manufacture of 5052, 6061 and 3003 alloys for cookware products. Products are produced for: Mill Finish, Electrical Conductors, Cookware Products, Packaging and Distribution. Buckhannon is considered a niche shop, processing a wide range of products in smaller quantities for many markets and customers.

Built in 1970, the facility engages in a re-rolling and finishing operation that now supplies foil and light-gauge, non-heat treatable aluminium coiled sheet, including products, including Semi-rigid Formed Container Stock, HVAC Standard and Automotive Fin Stock, Pharmaceutical Closure Stock, Spiral Duct Stock and Distribution.

Established in 1991, the Davenport casting facility produces hot rolled coil by utilising specialized blending, melting and continuous casting processes to produce high-quality aluminium sheets from predominantly recycled materials. Aluminium is then coiled for shipment and further processing.

The Davenport FInsishing facility dates back more than 100 years. Built in 1900, the facility features a wide range of finishing capabilities including cold rolling, annealing, leveling, coating and slitting to size. Aluminium coils from Davenport supply a wide range of customers in the building and construction, commercial transportation and industrial markets.

The Fairmont plant, an aluminium sheet and light gauge fin/foil cold rolling facility, supplies more than 70 domestic and international customers with more than 435 various products. The facility’s products are used in radiators, condensers, evaporators, heat cores, residential and commercial air conditioning, heat exchangers, refrigeration units and containers for the food service industry.

Novelis’ Greensboro facility was the first stand-alone Used Beverage Can recycling facility in the company. It is now responsible for pioneering the majority of Novelis’ recycling technologies. The site casts ingot for can body, can end, automotive and speciality alloys.

Novelis’ Guthrie facility is an automotive aluminium finishing plant that will prepare aluminium for use in vehicle parts such as body-in-white, hoods, doors, lift gates and fenders.

The finishing mill in Lincolnshire, established in 1966, cold rolls aluminium to a desired gauge, anneals to temper, levels and slits the rolled sheet to size. The plant produces mill finish coil.

Logan Aluminium is one of the largest, most technologically advanced aluminium manufacturing facilities in the world. Jointly owned by Novelis and Tri-Arrows Aluminium, Logan is a leader in the beverage can market, and is continuing to add new processes and capabilities (while continuing to supply over one-third of the total United States can market). 

Producing more than a billion pounds of high-quality aluminium sheet each year, Oswego represents Novelis’ first U.S. operation and stands today as the company’s largest, wholly-owned fabrication facility in North America. Equipped for aluminium scrap remelting/recycling, ingot casting, hot and cold rolling and finishing. Oswego generates premium aluminium products used primarily by automotive, building and construction, beverage can markets and in multiple industrial product applications. Oswego continuously strives to improve its manufacturing and quality processes.

Established in 1959, the Richmond facility utilises unique pellet casting technology and a compacting mill to produce aluminium rolled sheet for the building and construction industry. Richmond utilises recycled material to produce AA3025 and AA3105 mill finish sheet, used in the manufacturing of gutters, downspouts, soffit, fascia, siding, roofing panels, window trim and pipe jacketing.

The Terre Haute plant is a world-class light gauge aluminium rolling plant and a recognized leader in the production of semi-rigid foil container stock and wide industrial fin stock. 

Novelis’ Uhrichsville site, one of the top employers in Tuscarawas County, recycles aluminium scrap and rolls aluminium sheet for the Building & Construction, Transportation, and Distribution markets. The facility’s recycling, melting, and finishing units together process 500 million pounds of aluminium each year for end-use products including gutters, downspouts, cargo trailers, and pre-coated coil for metal service centres. 

The Novelis Warren plant applies coating to rolled aluminium sheet. The sheet is then used for production of lids for the tops of aluminium beverage cans, producing enough for more than one billion can lids each month. 

Novelis’ facility in Bay Minette, Alabama, will have an initial 600 kilotonnes of finished aluminium goods capacity per year focused on the beverage container market with flexibility for automotive and speciality production as well.
