Aleris International: Naming a Global Aluminum Leader
Client: Aleris International | Industry: Aluminum Manufacturing
The Challenge
A major aluminum company needed a new corporate identity that would communicate innovation, precision, and global capability across international markets while supporting its growth trajectory.
Our Solution
Emaginit developed the name 'Aleris' through our intensive naming process, creating a name that sounds modern, technological, and globally accessible. The name was vetted for trademark clearance in all target markets and tested for linguistic appropriateness across cultures.
The Results
Aleris International grew to rank 85th among the 212 private companies in the U.S. with at least $2 billion in annual revenue, reaching $4.12 billion in revenues. The distinctive name became a strong brand asset supporting global expansion.
"The Aleris name perfectly captures our identity as a global materials innovator." - Aleris International
