The aluminium refining industry is big business, so it is important for those involved to keep abreast of the costs of refineries around the world. CRU’s Alumina Refining Cost Service is a three-part report to provide a reliable and accurate report of the most up to date cost and productivity information.
The three parts are structured and easy to understand. The first part looks at analysis of technical parameters, business and economic costs, both historical and forecast up to 2022 as well as in-depth supply and cost analysis. Part 2 is more focused on individual sites in the alumina refining industry. With in-depth profiles, production and cost information is available for comparisons and analysis. The third part is the more interactive section, allowing you to carry out your own cost analyses and manipulation. The aim of this section is to allow the user to make informed decisions for investments and business strategy and generate customised cost curves matching business requirements.
CRU also gives the user the opportunity to use a modelling tool which allows you to input your own refinery’s data and make comparisons to other rival refineries around the world.  This service, vital in the commodity industry, gives the user an otherwise unavailable insight into alumina refining costs and production from plants around the world giving you the opportunity to make changes resulting in a more cost effective business. There are benefits in abundance by using this product, ultimately resulting in better business decisions and plans being made, and therefore increasing business and revenue.
