Aluminium formulation
– Converts alumina to aluminium in
desired shapes
– Utilizes up to 75% recycled input

Enclosure manufacturing (Foxconn Industrial Internet)
– Collects and processes scraps and chips through all processes
– Mitigates quality challenges due to inconsistency of recycled aluminium
– Tracks product carbon footprint (PCF) on lot-level based recycling
