<![CDATA[

The members of the Brussels-based association called European Aluminium have re-elected Emilio Braghi, president of Novelis Europe, as chair of the association at a virtual General Assembly meeting.

European Aluminium says it also has welcomed two new members this year, taking the association’s total membership to more than 85 member companies representing 600 plants in 30 European countries.

“I am grateful to my colleagues for their confidence during this critical time for our industry,’ says Braghi. “I aspire to be a strong ambassador for the entire value chain and help secure adequate support measures for our industry to recover from the [COVID-19] crisis and set the right conditions for fostering the production of sustainable aluminum in Europe.”

Adds Draghi, “I’m especially looking forward to the mid-term review of our industry’s sustainability roadmap to assess progress made and redefine our ambitions in the light of the Green Deal.”

Novelis Europe, based in Kuesnacht, Switzerland, is part of Atlanta-based Novelis, which is part of Mumbai-based Aditya Birla Group.

European Aluminium also has elected Philip Schlüter, CEO of Germany-based TRIMET Aluminium SE, as its new vice chair. Ingrid Jörg, president of global metals producer Constellium’s Aerospace and Transportation business; Arnaud de Weert, CEO at Paris-based Alvance Aluminium Group; and Gerald Mayer, CEO of AMAG Austria Metall AG, have now joined the 12-member executive committee of European Aluminium.
