CBA has a capacity of around 440,000 tons of primary aluminum per year. Main markets served are transportation and packaging, followed by building and construction products, and basic consumer goods. CBA is taking a critical look at all aspects of its business practices in order to increase its global competitiveness while maintaining a high level of social and environmental responsibility. Light Metal Age had a chance to sit down with Ricardo Carvalho, president of CBA, to learn about the company and his unique ethos governed by a moral responsibility towards local communities and the planet. Key topics include the company's focus on sustainability, its mining practices, its operations, energy in Brazil, and the company's future plans.
