The product flow is for primary aluminium in the form of an ingot. This specifies the metal has been processed from its ore to a high-purity state and cast into ingot form. The aluminium ingot has undergone treatment to meet industry quality standards, is compliant with relevant regulations, and is ready for use or further processing. The production route details the transformation from bauxite ore to aluminium through the Bayer process and electrolysis (Hall-Héroult process). The ingot is typically part of a production mix and is available 'at plant', indicating it has not been distributed to consumers yet.
