Constellium Extrusions Decin

What Constellium Extrusions Decin does

Constellium SE is a Paris-headquartered, NYSE-listed global manufacturer of high value-added aluminum products and solutions, organized into three business units: Aerospace and Transportation (A&T), Packaging and Automotive Rolled Products (P&ARP), and Automotive Structures and Industry (AS&I). The company serves safety-critical and sustainability-driven OEMs in commercial aerospace (Airbus, Boeing, Dassault Aviation, Embraer, Pilatus, Lockheed Martin), automotive (Ford, GM, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Stellantis, Renault Nissan Mitsubishi, Audi, Porsche, Bentley, Lamborghini, Rolls-Royce, Volvo Trucks), beverage packaging (AB InBev, Crown Holdings, Ball Corporation, Ardagh Group, CANPACK, Molson Coors), and industrial transport (Siemens), supported by ~11,500 employees and 24 manufacturing sites across Europe, North America, and China.

Its technology platform centers on proprietary aluminum alloys and process engineering: the Airware family of aluminum-lithium alloys developed over more than 20 years of R&D enables up to 20% weight reduction in aircraft structures; advanced manufacturing technologies such as friction stir welding, metal bonding, stretch forming, and hydroforming complement these alloys; and an emerging aluminum additive manufacturing offering extends into complex aerospace, automotive, and motorsport components. The company also operates R&D centers at C-TEC Voreppe (France), Plymouth, Michigan, and a University Technology Center in Middlesex (UK), and holds over 300 aerospace patents.

Constellium generates revenue primarily through direct B2B sales of hardware — aluminum sheets, plates, extrusions, and components — to OEM customers under enterprise, quote-based contracts, with technical collaboration embedded from design through manufacturing. Approximately 25% of 2025 revenue comes from automotive and ~13% from aerospace, with packaging and other markets making up the balance. A second revenue and cost lever is aluminum recycling: with ~735,000 metric tons of global capacity, including the 340k mt Muscle Shoals (US) and 130k mt Neuf-Brisach (France) centers, ~45% of aluminum input is sourced from recycled material, delivering a ~95% energy and emissions advantage versus primary aluminum and supporting closed-loop and end-of-life aircraft circular programs.
