Aluminum foil output up in Armenia 

ArmInfo. The metallurgical industry of Armenia, based on the results of the first half of 2025, reversed in annual dynamics from 8% growth to 8% decline. According to the data of the RA Statistical Committee, such dynamics were  provoked mainly by the reduction in the production of copper and  molybdenum concentrates.

In particular, the production of copper concentrate worsened in  annual dynamics from 15% growth to 9.3% decline, with a volume of  131.2 thousand tons, and molybdenum concentrate - from 25.2% growth  to 10.8% decline, amounting to 7,069.4 thousand tons.

The volume of ferromolybdenum production lingered in decline, slowing  down in pace from 49.2% to 34.2%, amounting to 1,484.4 thousand tons.

Growth was recorded for other types of metallurgical products. Thus,  zinc production volumes reached 5,854 thousand tons, slowing down in  growth from 20.8% to 8.7%.

Production of steel pipes in the first half of 2025 increased by 5.4%  (against growth of 26% a year earlier), amounting to 11,483.8  thousand tons.

At the same time, the volume of aluminum foil production increased  for the first time in a long time. If last year, over the same  period, production volumes of aluminum foil decreased by 28.1%, then  this year growth of 3.6% was recorded, with a volume of 10,218.1  thousand tons.

It should be noted that according to customs data, all metals  produced in Armenia are exported, primarily to Europe and the USA.
