Industry The Swiss aluminium industry recorded further growth of 5 percent in 2007 compared to the record year of 2006. This means that around 191,500 tons of aluminium were used in Switzerland, which corresponds to 25.5 kg of aluminium per capita in Switzerland. At 212,500 tons, total deliveries from Swiss semi-finished product plants - including exports - were around 5.3 percent up on the previous year. Last year's positive result once again applies to most areas of application in the Swiss aluminum industry, despite more difficult global market conditions.
