In our plant we produce two types of products:

• Slugs are used in pharmacy, food-processing and cosmetics industries;
• Discs are used as a bottoms for stainless steel holloware

Solid slugs and centre-hole slugs are used for the production of aluminium packaging tubes with or without membrane and for aerosol cans. Slugs are round, with or without a hole, surface treatment is tumbled or sandblasted, they can be flat or domed. Once punched, the slugs must go trough an annealing process.

Discs have diameters from 80 mm to 225 mm and thickness from 2 mm to 10 mm.

We produce our slugs and discs from continuously cast and rolled narrow strip, all punching tools are produced on site.

The basic properties of slugs and discs produced according to EN 570 standard are:

	Slugs	Discs
Diameter	13-100mm	80-225mm
Thickness	2-10mm	2-10mm
Alloys	99,7% (1070) 99,5% (1050) AlMn0,3 (3102) AlMn0,6 (3207)	99,5% (1050)
