    ALUMINIUM Exhibition 2026

    The world's leading trade fair and B2B platform for the aluminium industry will open its doors from October 6 - 8, 2026.

    a city next to a body of water

    Be our guest at the ALUMINIUM in Düsseldorf!
    We look forward to welcoming you at our stand #4F57 in hall 4!

    Let’s talk in a relaxed setting about how you can make your projects and products truly future-proof. Expect new impulses, practical solutions, and inspiring insights across the entire aluminium value chain.

    In a time of geopolitical uncertainty, volatile markets, and increasing competition for critical raw materials, one thing matters more than ever: reliable partnerships and stable supply chains. Future-ready industries need not only more sustainable materials, but above all security, transparency, and trust.

    This is exactly where Hydro comes in – with an integrated approach from raw materials, energy and production to recycling. In this way, we ensure supply security and transparent value creation, even under challenging conditions.

    At the same time, the transition towards lower-emission solutions remains essential. With certified and transparent aluminium products, we help you combine sustainability with industrial performance.

    Every step counts – and together, we can achieve more.
    Visit us at ALUMINIUM 2026 in Hall 4 and discover how we can future-proof your projects.

    Visit us at the Sustainability & Recycling Speakers Corner

    Discover the future of the aluminum industry at the Speakers Corner, where current topics related to recycling technologies, sorting systems, and environmental innovations will be discussed, with a focus on sustainability and the circular economy.

    Celebrating Innovation – Ideas That Really Matter

    We are excited to participate in the new ALUMINIUM Innovation Awards 2026, launched by the ALUMINIUM trade show in collaboration with the International Aluminium Journal. The awards recognize forward-thinking ideas, celebrate outstanding achievements, and honor innovative teams and companies in the aluminum industry.

    We’re proud to be represented with two innovations in the categories of Technology & Product Innovation and Sustainable & Low-Carbon Manufacturing.

    Support our innovations and vote for them! Click here to vote.

    AL-LEAN™ | Technology & Product Innovation
    Our patented alloy innovation opens up new possibilities in aluminum extrusion. With a lower silicon and magnesium content compared to standard 6060 alloys, AL-LEAN™ enables extrusion at lower pressures.

    This creates potential for weight and cost savings, higher productivity, lower CO₂ emissions, more complex geometries, longer tool life, and improved surface quality—across a wide range of applications.


    CIRCAL | Sustainable & Low-Carbon Manufacturing
    CIRCAL production combines technology and processing innovations into an integrated production route enabling production of low-carbon aluminium based on end-of-life scrap. While CIRCAL production is based on established processes for scrap pre-treatment, melting and casting, it adds with Hydro’s LiBS sorter “HySort” and the CDM (Combined Delacquering and Melting) technologies key process innovations to build a unique setup regarding variety of usable scrap source and scrap processing efficiency.

    Vote for our nominees!

    Visit us at our booth and experience AL-LEAN™ firsthand. You’ll also learn more about Hydro CIRCAL, our low-carbon recycled aluminum.

    Creating industries that matter

    Driving progress in a changing world requires materials that are as resilient as they are sustainable. From the buildings we live in to the transport and technologies we rely on, aluminium is part of everyday life. Its light weight, durability, and infinite recyclability have made it a critical material essential for the green transition, industrial competitiveness, and long-term global stability.
