In 2016, Constellium and Can Art created a joint venture, Astrex, to meet the growing demand for stronger, lighter weight, cost-effective aluminium extrusions used in automotive Crash Management Systems and body structure components. The 50/50 venture, located in Ontario, Canada with more than 100 employees, is dedicated to extruding Constellium’s specialty alloys. Products from the joint venture plant are then shipped to the Constellium plants in North America, where they are made into final assemblies such as Crash Management Systems, windshield headers, rockers, roof bows, etc.
