Kaiser Aluminum, Foothill Ranch, Calif., has signed a new long-term contract with Boeing to supply sheet and light-gauge aluminum plate for use in Boeing commercial aircraft products. The new supply contract, which extends an existing agreement, effectively adds to a prior multi-year agreement for heavy-gauge plate between Boeing and Kaiser signed earlier this year.

"Kaiser Aluminum and Boeing have a long history of partnership, and this agreement further solidifies the longterm relationship between the two companies," says lack A. Hockema, Kaiser chairman, president and chief e.xecutive officer.

The contract with Boeing is enabled by a previously announced $105 million expansion at Kaiser Aluminum's Trentwood Rolling Mill in Spokane.
