A total of 75% of aluminium foil is used to package foods, cosmetics, and chemical products, while 25% is used for industrial applications like thermal insulation, electrical cable, and electronics. Aluminium foil is easily recycled and it succeeded tin foil in the mid-20th century. Aluminium foil is tasteless and odourless. Aluminium foil is extremely dimensionally stable even in the soft state. The paper-thin, shiny sheet of aluminium metal is made from aluminium alloy which consists of between 92% and 99% aluminium.

In the production of modern foil, aluminium is rolled through continuous mills, resulting in a thin and longer product. This process reduces the thickness of the aluminium product, which is then wound into a coil at the end of the production line. Afterwards, these coils are cold rolled.


Austria's economy is a developed social market economy, with the nation being one of the fourteen globally richest in terms of GDP per capita. Austria ranks as a highly developed industrialized nation, where the service sector is a priority.
