Most of EGA's annual production is value-added products, with about 90 per cent of total production being exported across the world. Alloy billets make up 46 per cent of EGA’s total production. A large proportion of the annual production is cast in highly extrudable 6063 alloy. The two operations of EGA at Jebel Ali  and Al Taweelah manufacture high purity aluminium in the form of ingots for high-precision use in the electronics and aerospace industries. They also produce a range of alloys for automotive manufacturers who use them for making strong and lightweight wheel rims, suspension parts and engine blocks.

EGA earns substantial revenues from the export of aluminium alloys. Notably, EGA is not focussing only at being a net exporter of aluminium alloys.
