Aluminium in its mineral form is the most abundant metal element in the earths crust. Aluminium has the most wonderful properties: It's weight/strength ratio is excellent when compared to most other metals It can be melted time and time again without deterioration of its properties. Recycling saves 95 percent of the energy required to produce the primary metal. The metals value insures economic motivation to collect and recycle. Aluminium is consistently replacing other less practical, durable and environmentally sound substances in all the major industrial sectors in which it competes - transport, construction, packaging, electrical, consumer goods. All the major industrial sectors in which aluminium is used are expected to grow over the coming decade. Hell, why are we all sat here debating the detail. We're working in a great industry with a great future, we should finish now and go out and celebrate!!
