Aluminium demand is expected to grow at an annual rate of 7-8 percent in China and 4-5 percent globally, for an indefinite number of years, the chief executive of Novelis Inc said on Wednesday.
Phil Martens, CEO of the world's top maker of aluminium rolled products and aluminium can recycling, was speaking in an interview before a news conference to announce the company's construction of its first aluminium rolled facility in China.
