Norsk Hydro ASA plans to significantly expand the fabrication division within its extrusion group with an eye toward developing downstream business.
Matthew Dionne, North American extrusion sector president, is spearheading the company’s fabrication efforts, a Hydro spokesman told AMM.
"Hydro is organizing their resources so they can work with their customers from the extrusion through to the finished product. They’re significantly expanding their internal resources to support customers on the fabrication side," the Hydro spokesman said. "Basically, they’re positioning themselves to be a one-stop shop."
Hydro will fabricate extruded shapes into a variety of parts, including aluminum frames for camping tents, components for lawn mowers or parts for automobiles, the spokesman said.
