Our approach

Aluminium is comparatively ‘new’ industrial metal, having been produced in commercial quantities for only a little over 100 years. Yet today aluminium is very widely used in the world around us – if you are visiting Star’s website today on a computer or handheld device you are using aluminium – and its use is increasing at a faster trend rate than that of any other industrial metal, bar stainless steel.

Through our strong relationships with manufacturers around the world, we responsibly source, transport, and supply aluminium on a global scale. Through our extensive network of logistics and warehousing partners, we provide a range of solutions suited to the diverse needs of our international customer base across all continents. We leverage our trading expertise, our research capabilities, and our risk management tools to navigate not only market volatility, but also operational and political risks.
