AL Circle: How do you envision the future of aluminium in the construction sector? What trends or developments do you expect in the coming years?

Khaled Abdelmoneim: Like all other industries, the construction industry is heavily influenced by the rapid growth of digitalization, AI, and the Circular economy. Building information systems, 3D visualization and digital delivery, are some of the aspects that will play a vital role in the future of the industry. With today’s labour shortages coupled with the need for fast delivery, modular buildings are gaining an advantage over traditional construction. A circular economy calls for smart cities and improved manufacturing processes with improved carbon emissions. Aluminium plays a key role in providing smart solutions that meet current and future industry demands. It offers great design capability, lighter weight, and continuous improvement in carbon emission.
