One of the fair's highlights this year is the European Aluminium Award, for which Hydro is one of the main sponsors. The award is on the initiative of the Dutch Aluminium Center, in cooperation with EAA, GDA and exhibition organizers. This year, the award will be presented in six categories, in order to cover the major fields of aluminium applications. Several Hydro customers have submitted entries to the consumer/end products and industrial/semi products categories.
