Brazil is Hydro's main source of the important raw material bauxite and is the country where the company has the most employees.
In Brazil, we extract raw materials from the bauxite mine Paragominas and refine bauxite to alumina (aluminium oxide) at the world's largest alumina refinery outside China, Alunorte.
We also produce aluminium metal at the Albras plant, which we partly own, and operate three downstream extrusion plants in Itu, Tubarão and Utinga.
