DELEBIO
At Delebio plant Carcano has systematically invested not just in foil rolling, but also in the plants used earlier in the process keeping itself in the forefront.Primary aluminium slabs with accurately controlled quality are produced in the foundry.
The hot and cold rolling processes are performed using ultra modern systems which make it possible to obtain rolls with a weight of over 12 tonnes and in a width of over 2 metres .
The resulting great advantages include: independence and flexibility in order acquisition and handling, in-depth knowledge of the production flow to the foil, maximum control over product quality and excellent traceability.
FOUNDRY: Around 34,000 tonnes/year of primary aluminium slabs destined for rolling are converted in the foundry.
