Aluminium production capacities were expanded intensively and in the 1960s a new aluminium production facility was constructed. In the middle of the 1980s, the smelter was modernised using the latest technologies of that time, increasing production capacity from 2,000 to 100,000 tonnes per annum, which satisfies half of all aluminium demand in Sweden.
