Century Aluminum Company
A global producer of primary aluminum, Century Aluminum runs smelters in the U.S. and Iceland and holds a majority stake in a Jamaican bauxite and alumina joint venture. Founded in 1995 to take over aluminum assets from commodities giant Glencore, the company was created partly to shake off the stigma of Marc Rich, the notorious trader who secretly controlled its Ravenswood, West Virginia smelter. Its Icelandic plant, powered by renewable energy, produces a low-carbon line called Natur-Al™.
