Alteo is a medium-sized French enterprise based in Gardanne, in the South of France with teams present throughout the world to serve growing markets.

With a substantial sales network, an R&D centre dedicated to the development of customised products and Customer Service and Technical Support teams specialised per market, we support our customers throughout the purchase process.

Thus, we have created the commercial subsidiary Alteo India Aluminas Private Ltd, in Bombay, and the joint venture Alteo-Ginet Lithium Battery Material Technology, in Suzhou, dedicated to the electric battery market.

We have also commissioned new mills in Taiwan and Korea to meet the growing demand for high-end products in our strategic markets.

VISION & VALUES: INNOVATION SUPPORTING PRODUCTS, PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT

Alteo – a global leader in speciality aluminas – continues the implementation of its sustainable growth strategy, based on 2 inseparable components:

* Customer focus  to supply high-quality products and services to support our customers in their growth
* Sustainable development in all of our activities

This sustainable development approach is based on the values of our company and is organized with all our stakeholders around 3 priority commitments:

* The health and safety of all our employees and partners
* The constant reduction of our environmental footprint
* Our social responsibility

Our approach to continuous improvement, operational excellence and the certification of our integrated management system according to the standards ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001 and ISO 50001 stress our ambition to achieve excellence.

Equal pay for women and men for equal work is one of the flagship measures of the law for the freedom to choose one’s professional perspective. In 2020, Alteo’s “Gender Equality Index” was 79%.

This commitment to sustainable growth is the key to the success of our Group. It is part of the daily action of the women and men who work in our company.

It is through their commitment and the development of their skills that Alteo continuously improves its performance, in terms of customer satisfaction, and in the fields of health, safety, environment and energy. It is also through its involvement at a local level and by conducting its international affairs respectfully and ethically that Alteo wishes to build a better future.

Since 2011, Alteo is committed to the global initiative RESPONSIBLE CARE® and has been awarded the 2019 Mediterranean Responsible Care® Trophy in the Environment category.

In 2021, as part of the implementation of the “France Relance” plan, the State and the Region Sud will support the development of our activities and the creation of advanced aluminas, which are essential today and even more tomorrow.
