Hydro Aluminium Extrusion UK Ltd, as part of Norsk Hydro is the UK's leading supplier of extruded, machined and surface finished aluminium extrusions.

We deliver aluminium extrusions to all industry sectors in the UK and Ireland.

Being part of the Hydro Group, Europe's largest manufacturer of aluminium extrusions and one of the world's largest producers of aluminium, gives us access to extensive resources and a wide network of skills that benefits our customers.

The company has four presses over four production sites - to ensure not only a wide ranging capability but also one which extends geographically across the UK. In addition to the four presses, the company can also offer surface treatment, anodising and expert aluminium fabrication facilities. We also have our own expert extrusion die making facilities.

But our comprehensive spread of expertise is supplemented by the ability to offer larger sections from our Karmoy press, based in Norway.

Our philosophy is simple:

The extruded components and assemblies we supply must help our customers manufacture and sell their products. Thus we must understand our customers' business as we do our own, and ensure that our service and support programmes contribute to our customers' success.
We do not only find solutions, we extrude them.

We offer the market competitive, selected fabricating and surface treatment services. We will achieve this through a competent and dedicated organisation where safe work and environmentally friendly conditions are prerequisites.
