NZAS

NZAS is a joint venture between Rio Tinto (79.36%) and Sumitomo Chemical Company (20.64%), of Japan... This is a special place. It shapes a special kind of people, a special culture. People like us never settle for good enough. With strong hands and sharp minds we harness pure energy to forge the world's purist and most sustainable aluminium, a world-beating product that can be recycled almost infinitely. We make a key structural material of the 21st century, with about 90 per cent of our aluminium exported around the world to be used in cutting-edge devices and technologies that power the world. Without aluminium modern industries such as construction, automotive, aviation, energy, and food couldn't exist... Go behind the gates and discover why Tiwai, our people and our pure metal is so special to Southland, New Zealand and beyond.
