ALFED launches UK Aluminium Industry Map to showcase national capability andsupport investment

Engineering Industry News

The Aluminium Federation (ALFED) has launched a new interactive online Member Map to
showcase the scale, diversity and geographic reach of the UK aluminium industry.
Developed as part of ALFED’s work through the UK Aluminium Alliance, the map provides a visual
overview of ALFED members across the country, highlighting where aluminium businesses are
located and the roles they play across the value chain — from production and processing through to
recycling, distribution and specialist services.


Each listing includes key information about the member’s core activities and site location, creating the
most comprehensive publicly available snapshot of the current UK aluminium landscape.
The map has been designed to support three core objectives:

  • To improve visibility of UK aluminium capability for customers, policymakers and investors
  • To demonstrate regional clusters of activity and supply chain interdependencies
  • To provide a stronger evidence base for discussions around industrial strategy, infrastructure
    investment, skills and decarbonisation
    The initiative forms part of ALFED’s wider ambition to better represent the “as is” state of the UK
    aluminium sector and strengthen its voice in government and industry engagement.
    The UK Aluminium Alliance is focused on improving domestic demand, strengthening scrap
    retention and utilisation, and supporting a more resilient and circular aluminium supply chain. The
    new map supports this work by making the industry’s footprint more transparent and accessible.

    The ALFED Member Map is now live and will be updated regularly: Members Directory – ALFED
