Historical Overview of
Alumíniumárugyár

On May 10, 1899, the predecessor of Alumíniumárugyár, Magyar Fémlemezipar Rt. (Hungarian Sheet Metal Industry Co.), was established. Initially, the factory manufactured tin utensils, signboards, metal ornaments, and children's toys.

In 1906, the plant relocated to its current site on Erzsébet királyné street. In the spirit of continuous development, the machinery of the Spindler tin factory was acquired in 1914, followed by the commissioning of an aluminum rolling mill in 1933.

The extensive damage caused by World War II was fully restored by 1947. In 1948, the plant became state-owned and continued its operation under the name Alumíniumárugyár.

From the 1950s, the mass production of aluminum utensils and equipment commenced. Starting in the 1960s, as a defining milestone in the company's history, the production of low-pressure aluminum gas cylinders was launched. This product line, encompassing the manufacturing and distribution of aluminum gas cylinders, became one of the company's most essential core activities.

Following its privatization, the company has continued its operations under the name Alumíniumárugyár Zrt. since 1993. Since then, up to the present day, our operations have been characterized by continuous technological and product development, utilizing state-of-the-art manufacturing solutions.
