On the Establishment of UACJ Corporation

Effective today, Furukawa-Sky Aluminum Corporation and Sumitomo Light Metal Industries Co., Ltd. have merged to form the new UACJ Corporation.

With the current business environment changing at an unprecedented speed, the merger will allow the wider UACJ Group to fuse the superior quality, technology, product development and equipment previously fostered by each company. We will use these combined strengths to enhance our competitiveness and business structure as we work toward the goal of becoming an aluminum industry leader in a competitive global market.
