Metals.com, a leader in retail metals sales, celebrated its 10th anniversary with the new aluminium division. This aluminium division will serve the automobile, aerospace and construction industries.

Metals.com Vice President Walter Vera said: "Aluminium is widely acknowledged as one of the most versatile materials available today. The broad application of aluminium is something our team understands and will uniquely compliment our enterprise customers in the manufacturing sector."

"Aluminium is an essential element to the American manufacturing future, There are over 692,000 jobs and $174 billion dollars in economic output equivalent to 1% of the United States GDP."

Metals.com will offer aluminium long bar, tube, pipe, sheet, coil, and plate metal products.

"People use more aluminium today, more than at any point in the 125-year history of the metal's commercial production," said Mr. Vera, "...With our unique supply chain expertise at Metals.com, we believe we can make a sizable impact in this sector of the metals manufacturing market."

The global aluminium market was estimated to be in a deficit in 2019. However, a Reuters poll suggests the market is likely to flip into a surplus of 304,000 tonnes in 2020 next year, from 658,500 tonnes in 2019.
