Last month, Deputy Minister of Industries, Mining and Trade Mehdi Karbasian announced that a large aluminium production plant with a capacity of 300,000-tonne per year will be put into operation in the south of Iran by the end of current Iranian calendar year (March 20, 2019). The plant will be the largest and most modern aluminium production plant in Iran. Karbasian added that construction is currently underway at South Aluminum Corp (Salco). 

Iran Aluminium Company (IRALCO), HORMOZAL and Al-Mahdi are the three major aluminium production companies in Iran.

IRALCO is the major aluminium producer in Iran. The company has an annual production capacity of 180,000 tonnes consisting of different pure ingots. With domestic consumption of the metal in Iran standing at about 340,000 tonnes per year, the company is now gearing up to add around 350,000 tonnes of new production capacity. The company says that with IRALCO’s total production capacity reaching closer to 800,000 tonnes, Iran would become a net exporter of aluminium by 2019.

In the comparable period of 2017, Iran Alumina Company based in Jajarm, North Khorasan province produced 363,300 tons of bauxite in the same period. The company produced 102,268 and 102,268 tons of alumina powder and aluminium hydrates in the same period respectively.

ran Alumina Company's bauxite, aluminium hydrate and the lime production also registered a significant growth as compared to the same period of last year.
