On March 6, Daeho AL, a company specializing in aluminum materials, announced that it will accelerate global sales growth by expanding its high value-added aluminum product portfolio, strengthening its secondary battery materials business, and targeting overseas markets.

Daeho AL has been responding to the growing demand from various downstream industries such as automotive, electrical and electronics, and secondary batteries, leveraging its accumulated technology and production expertise in aluminum rolling and processing. In particular, as eco-friendly policies are strengthened and the trend toward lightweight vehicles expands, demand for aluminum materials is on the rise, and the company plans to use this momentum to further enhance its competitiveness.

This year, the company presented its core strategies as expanding the proportion of high value-added products, diversifying its customer base, and entering new application fields. Daeho AL plans to move away from a business structure centered on standard products and focus on developing high-strength and high-precision aluminum materials, while also expanding its supply of materials for electric vehicle and secondary battery cases.

Notably, among aluminum processed parts for secondary batteries, Daeho AL is the only company in Korea that produces and supplies prismatic can-type products. As demand for prismatic cans, which offer high safety, is rapidly increasing, the company expects related sales to grow as well.

The company is also pursuing a strategy to expand its overseas markets. Focusing on its global supply chains in countries such as Poland, Hungary, Thailand, and India, Daeho AL aims to increase its export ratio from approximately 19% last year to 25% this year.

A Daeho AL representative stated, "We will continue to strengthen our research and development capabilities and consistently improve productivity to enhance our global competitiveness," adding, "We will also continue management efforts to increase shareholder value."
