Emirates Global Aluminium’s Al Taweelah site is located in Khalifa Industrial Zone Abu Dhabi (KIZAD), approximately halfway between the cities of Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
Our smelter at Al Taweelah was built in two phases. The first began production in 2009, and the second in 2013. Al Taweelah was the largest single-site smelter in the world when completed.
EGA’s Al Taweelah site was the first in the Middle East to achieve certification to the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative Performance Standards, the aluminium industry’s internationally-recognised standard for environmental and social performance and governance.
The whole site is five times bigger than Abu Dhabi’s Al Maryah Island at six square kilometres.
