Networking Influence & Policymaking When you’re a member of the Aluminium Federation, you have a unique opportunity to influence government policy on issues relevant to your business. Whatever your company size or speciality within the industry, we help you take your views to the right people. Whether it’s feeding into our regular calls with the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS), speaking with parliamentarians at our House of Lords lunch or working with the Aluminium Industry All- Party Parliamentary Group, you have access to many platforms for championing your business’ interests. Shared Learnings & Networking Our sector sub-groups give you opportunities to network and shape ALFED’s position in areas relevant to you – choose from Finishing, Recycling, Extrusion and Automotive & innovation. Meetings bring together members from across the supply chain, fostering customer and supplier relationships while helping you learn from your peers. Each meets regularly for networking and to discuss issues ranging from trade and standards to supply
and HSE. In addition, the insight you get from ALFED’s in depth reports would cost thousands of pounds if purchased from a research firm or consultancy. Use them to identify opportunities for your business to grow in the UK and globally. Savings & Partnerships Streamline processes and save money through our partnerships with key suppliers across energy management, component sales, marketing, legal support and more. As an ALFED member, you benefit from special offers and preferential rates that make it easier to manage your business.

We represent your interests through partnerships with other trade bodies and internationally. We’re a founder member of the UK Metals Council, are active members of several organisations and collaborate on R&D with Catapult centres and universities. “The more involved you get with ALFED, the more you get out of it. You get reduced prices from various suppliers, can be involved in informative sector groups and, most importantly, get your voice heard.”
