Aleris said it has signed a multiyear agreement with Boeing to supply the aircraft maker with aluminum aerospace plate and sheet.
Aleris, an aluminum recycler and producer of aluminum products, did not specify the value of the work for Boeing. However, Aleris did say aluminum plate and sheet products for Boeing will be supplied from its plant in Koblenz, Germany.
Aleris said it and Boeing also are in the process of qualifying Aleris' rolling mill in Zhenjiang, China, for aircraft plate. Aleris formally introduced the $350 million hot rolling mill last April. Aleris said it recently announced it has attained AS 9100 certification for the mill; the certification is the basic aircraft-related quality standard for the production of aircraft aluminum plate.
Johan Petry, vice president of Aerospace for Aleris, said the latest agreement with Boeing “represents the continuation of a long collaborative relationship between Boeing and Aleris for more than a decade."
