The Volgograd Aluminium Smelter was commissioned in 1959. The production facility is served by an efficient transport infrastructure – it is linked to the Federal Railway Network and located close to the Volgograd River Port.

The Volga-Don River canal system allows marine transport of raw materials to the smelter and facilitates shipment of finished products to key Russian ports.

The smelter’s main product is primary aluminium. Production capacity of VgAZ is 168,000 tonnes of saleable aluminium per annum. Energy for the facility is purchased on the wholesale market.
