Shaping the future of aviation with high-performance aerospace aluminum

The aerospace industry is constantly innovating and evolving to accommodate a growing number of air passengers and replace older, less efficient planes with more fuel-efficient models. Novelis supports the transition with a broad portfolio of aerospace-grade aluminum sheet and plate backed by robust technical capabilities and on-the-ground support.

Application Overview

Fuselage Panels

Low-density alloys for lighter fuselage sheets, which translate into fuel efficiency and lower operating costs for the airline industry.

Wing Plates

High strength upper wing and high damage tolerant lower wing alloys in plates of various sizes and gauges for integral and built-up wing solutions.

Key Benefits

Manufacturing Excellence

With some of the world’s most advanced hot and cold rolling mills, we produce extremely wide and ultra-thick plates in standard and custom alloys, meeting the most demanding standards and many individual customer specifications. Our plates are engineered for both high strength and damage tolerance, with specialized alloys for upper and lower wing applications in a variety of sizes and gauges.

Improved Buy-to-Fly Ratio

Shape cutting and pre-machining can be offered to optimize cost efficiency and to minimize metal yield at the customer site. Novelis is specialized in pre-machining for long components such as wing plates which can be supplied in shaped, surface machined or even tapered format.
