Facilities > Gardanne
The only alumina producing site in France
Built in 1893 at the entrance to Gardanne, today the plant offers its huge red colored silhouette to its visitors.

Alumina (aluminium oxide), a powder as white as snow, has been extracted from the red mineral, bauxite, day and night, in a continual flow, since 1956. A pole of skills that exports its know-how all over the world was gradually built up around the production of this mineral compound.
