Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) announced that it could take up to a year to fully restore aluminium production at its Al Taweelah facility in the UAE following an attack the previous month.

The attack, allegedly by Iranian forces, resulted in the full evacuation of the site and emergency shutdowns of its smelter, Casthouse, power plant, and associated refineries and recycling facilities, disrupting operations massively.

This incident marks a significant setback for EGA, one of the world’s largest aluminium producers, as it embarks on a lengthy restoration process to bring its UAE production base back to full capacity.
