According to statistics, United Company RUSAL (RUSAL)’s aluminum production totaled around 3.76 million tons in 2019, keeping flat compared to the previous year.
RUSAL’s sales volume had a year-on-year increase of 13.8% to 4.18 million tons roughly in 2019. The increase was mainly because RUSAL sold part of the remaining stocks of primary aluminum at the end of 2018 due to sanctions by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and the second part of the first phase of Boguchansky aluminum smelter (BoAZ) was commissioned last March.
Separately, RUSAL’s sales volume of value-added products totaled around 1.55 million tons, a year-on-year reduction of 7.0%, accounting for 37% of the total sales.
