Updated on 06 December 2025 Aluminium is everywhere, from the bauxite mines to the sleek products we use daily. But how well do we understand the journey of this versatile metal? That’s where AL Pedia, a knowledge hub under AL Learn, comes in. Through AL Pedia, we’re building an easy-to-follow A-Z encyclopedia of aluminium, covering […]
We have spoken all the time about how effective the aluminium alloys could be in a wide range of applications like defence, aerospace, automotive, building and construction and energy storage, which will finally support decarbonisation. Aluminium, with its light weight, superior corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, and high strength-to-weight ratio, is rapidly making its mark in […]
The illusion that every idea already exists There’s a sentence we all say when we sit with friends and talk about starting something new: “Every business idea, including an aluminium business, we think of someone who has already made it.” “We should’ve done this earlier; now the market is full.” “If we started this years […]
We are living in a digital world. From waking up to the alarm set on our mobile phones in the morning, to scrolling through reels or streaming Netflix at night- almost everything we do, everyday, is dependent on some digital device or service. Even beyond our phones and laptops, “digital” is present everywhere- route navigation, […]
Introduction Aluminium is a highly reactive metal that oxidises readily. Because of its strong affinity for oxygen, it quickly forms a thin, adherent and impermeable layer of aluminium oxide (Al₂O₃), which serves as a protective barrier against corrosion. However, when this layer is broken, corrosion can begin either in a localised area or on the […]
