Cleveland-based aluminum rolled products company Aleris has signed a multiyear contract with Brazil-based airplane manufacturer Embraer to supply aluminum flat-rolled products for use in Embraer aircraft. The renewed contract agreement includes the supply of what Aleris calls technically advanced alloys and extends the portfolio of products for different applications.
“Our continued investment in growing our technical capabilities has enabled us to further expand our relationship with Embraer, and we look forward to working with them to achieve their aircraft manufacturing and design goals,” says Sean Stack, Aleris chairman and CEO. “With a world-class aerospace aluminum plate facility in Asia Pacific, we are also uniquely positioned to help them meet aerospace demand in the region, which is projected to experience the most significant growth.”
The contract includes the supply of material from the company's facilities in Koblenz, Germany, and Zhenjiang, China, the latter of which represents a greenfield project Aleris opened in 2013.
Embraer is the third largest airplane manufacturer in the world.
