• CENTURY ALUM CO Profile

    When the aluminum century rolls around, it'll be ready. Century Aluminum makes primary molten and ingot aluminum at facilities in Kentucky and West Virginia, as well as in Iceland; that last facility is operated by subsidiary Nordural. Century Aluminum also owns a 49.7% stake in an aluminum production facility in South Carolina (Alcoa owns the rest). Four customers -- aluminum producer Rio Tinto Alcan, diversified metals company BHP Billiton, commodities trader Glencore International, and wire and cable maker Southwire -- account for 85% of Century Aluminum's sales. Glencore is Century Aluminum's former parent and still has a 30% stake in the company.
