At Golden Aluminum, our patented continuous block casting means we can offer a broad range of alloys, any thickness, any coating and any color aluminum no matter how unique your needs under deadlines no one else can touch while still maintaining the most stringent quality standards. Our process is the most efficient, cost-effective system in the industry, and that, in short, is the biggest advantage of working with Golden Aluminum’s mini mill.

That is some claim. But when you talk to our customers, you’ll find that it’s no idle boast. Whether your requirements are large or small, commercially unique or under a ridiculously short time constraint, your needs will became our number one concern.

It started as a way to make aluminum for beverage containers.
We are dedicated to the narrow width, niche market. And gladly so.
Today we make aluminum for
    • Tab stock, bare and coated, beverage and food
    • Food and other provisional containers
    • E-clean™ process aluminum
        Proprietary ultra-clean aluminum for high tech applications
    • Architectural products including window blinds and window components
    • FDA coated aluminum supplier
    • Food end and body stock
    • Wine and beverage caps and closures
    • Building and construction products
    • License plate stock
We can produce aluminum sheet in gauges from .005 inches to .032 inches. We can maintain tolerances of +/ – .0002 inches. We can do it with the precise certified metallurgical properties that you need and the absolute consistency you demand. And we can do it in record time, every time.

We don’t believe in waste. In fact, we built an industry around it.
We start by sending used beverage containers through our unique shredding system. Then we vaporize any coatings and moisture, being sure to also incinerate any leftover gas to prevent pollution. We make sure the surplus heat is returned to the kiln, because, like we said, we don’t believe in wasting anything.

When everything is still hot, we feed it into a melting furnace. Impurities are filtered out.
Elements are added to meet specific uses like the patented alloy 5017 we developed at our Fort Lupton, Colorado, plant.

We end up with aluminum that exceeds our customers’ designed requirements, all the while using up to 95% of UBC containers. This obsession with waste helps us save something else: your money.

Color. Because the first rule of marketing is “Do Not Blend In.”
At some point, you’re going to want to stand out from the crowd. You’re going to want to do a special promotion or match your logo. You’re going to want color. And no one can meet your color needs better than the color specialists at Golden Aluminum. We can produce virtually any color you want.

The mill may be mini, but the advantages are XL.
When the big mills say it can’t be done, what they really mean is they won’t do it. Their large mills and layers of bureaucracy just aren’t as flexible as our continuous block casting technology and lean manufacturing philosophy. And continuous is the word. Our mill is designed to run 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and save you time and money in the process.

Continuous casting, continuous dedication.
We’ve made a big deal of our continuous block casting technology. But it would be nothing more than a huge paperweight if it weren’t for the continuous dedication of our people.
Many have been with us from the very beginning. Their expertise and philosophy of perpetual improvement is the reason so many companies refer to us as their aluminum partner.

We hope you will join them.
