<p>For Constellium aluminium is more than a metal. Over the decades they have built upon their expertise in the light metal technology and come up with innovations that have set benchmarks for the industry at large. One such innovation is Constellium’s Aeral™ solution for the production of aluminium aerosol containers. The technology allows manufacturers to the right high-performing yet light solution for their aerosol can production. <br /><br />Constellium has now launched a video on Aeral™ to define the novel aluminium solution for the next-gen aerosols. <br /><br />Constellium created Aeral™ through a combination of high-end research at C-TEC and strong engineering capabilities at their rolling mill in Neuf-Brisach, Germany, where a wide range of light-weighting products, including aluminium beverage cans, has been produced till date. <br /><br /><img style="vertical-align: middle; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="http://www.alcircle.com/uploads/images/aeral-the-new-aluminium-solution.png" alt="News" width="784" height="420" /><br /><br />Aeral™ enables aerosol containers to be produced with the Draw & Iron technology. The combination of Constellium’s metal expertise and this technology significantly reduces the weight of the aerosol cans by up to 30 per cent vis-a-vis the traditional impact extruded cans. Besides, the entire process lowers the carbon footprint of the aerosol cans without compromising on the performance in terms of ductility and resistance to pressure. </p>
