United Company RUSAL (OTCMKTS:URSSF) is one of the world’s largest producers of aluminium and alumina, headquartered in Moscow, Russia. The company traces its origins to the establishment of RUSAL in 2000 by Russian industrialist Oleg Deripaska and solidified its position through the 2007 merger with SUAL and Glencore’s alumina assets. Since its formation, RUSAL has developed a fully integrated business model encompassing bauxite mining, alumina refining, primary aluminium smelting and the production of value-added products.
RUSAL’s core operations are organized into three business segments: alumina, aluminium and value-added products. In the alumina division, the company processes bauxite into alumina at refineries located primarily in Russia, Guinea and Guyana. Its aluminium segment includes smelting facilities that convert alumina into primary aluminium metal, while the value-added arm produces rolled aluminium, extrusion profiles and speciality alloys for use in packaging, automotive, aerospace and industrial applications.
The company’s operations span multiple continents, with production assets in Russia, Africa, South America and Australia. RUSAL supplies aluminium products to customers across Europe, Asia-Pacific, North America and the Middle East, serving industries such as construction, transportation, electrical engineering and consumer goods. Through its global sales network, the company leverages integrated logistics and downstream partnerships to reach over 120 markets worldwide.
Founded and initially consolidated under Oleg Deripaska’s ownership, RUSAL today operates under a corporate structure led by a management team based in Moscow and overseen by a board of directors that includes independent members. The company maintains a focus on technological innovation, cost efficiency and environmental stewardship, and it continues to invest in research, low-carbon production techniques and upstream resource development to strengthen its position in the global aluminium market.
