Acknowledging the importance of the Far East and ASEAN regions - both of which represent major export markets for the premium purity, high quality primary aluminium produced in the UAE - Dubai Aluminium (DUBAL) and Emirates Aluminium (EMAL) has participated jointly in the annual ALUMINIUM China 2012 exhibition.

Mohamed Qanbar, General Manager, Marketing & Sales for Asia, the overriding objectives of participating at ALUMINIUM China 2012 are to raise awareness of the UAE's growing primary aluminium sector among customers in greater Asia; and to position the two companies to pursue opportunities in the region.

The presence of DUBAL and EMAL is particularly pertinent in the light of ongoing negotiations between the Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) region and China regarding the formulation of a Free Trade Agreement ("FTA"). Initiated by the GCC in 2008, the FTA negotiations to date have entailed representatives of both regions meeting; and both sides currently reviewing the packages in terms of products, services and other joint co-operations.

Qanbar advises that both DUBAL and EMAL are playing active roles in the negotiations as access to this important market will be vastly improved should the current duties be dropped.
