  • Alba: Building Together & Growing Together As a cornerstone of Bahrain’s industrial heritage, Alba’s commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is woven into the very fabric of our operations. We believe that true success is measured not only by our achievements as a leading aluminium producer but also by the positive impact we create in the community we serve. Building upon our 50-plus year legacy, 2024 saw Alba’s CSR initiatives illuminating pathways for environmental stewardship, nurturing local talent, empowering women, and fostering the sustainable development of Bahraini society.
  • Empowering Through Partnership and Engagement We understand that collaboration is the catalyst for progress. Alba actively partners with diverse organisations, from educational institutions to vocational centers, to deliver transformative training and workshops that empower individuals with essential skills and a thirst for lifelong learning. Our partnership with INJAZ Bahrain demonstrates this commitment. In 2024, a remarkable 77 Alba employees dedicated their time and expertise, delivering 111 training sessions and contributing a total of 1,040 hours of invaluable training to Bahraini students. This collaborative effort not only empowers the next generation but also aligns seamlessly with Bahrain’s Economic Vision 2030.
  • Beyond education, we champion the spirit of athleticism and cultural enrichment. Our unwavering support for local and international sporting events, including the Rashed Equestrian & Horseracing Club activities, HM the King’s Youth Endurance Race, Alba Sports Festival, and the Bahrain F1 Grand Prix, reflects our dedication to promoting a vibrant and dynamic society. Similarly, our patronage of arts and cultural institutions like the Shaikh Ebrahim bin Mohamed Cultural Centre and Beit Al Quran underscores our belief in the power of culture to inspire and unite.
  • Direct Community Initiatives: Nurturing a Brighter Future Throughout 2024, Alba extended its reach to the heart of the community, launching impactful initiatives that addressed critical needs and fostered a sense of shared responsibility. In harmony with HRH the Crown Prince and Prime Minister Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa’s National Tree Week initiative, we planted trees at our Al Dana Garden, symbolising our commitment to environmental sustainability. Furthermore, our collaboration with public authorities resulted in the planting of thousands of local trees along King Hamad Highway, complemented by an advanced sustainable irrigation system. Our volunteers also joined the Southern Governorate’s “We Protect our Desert” campaign, cleaning up the areas surrounding the iconic “Tree of Life.”

  • Success: Measured by Community Impact. We believe our achievements are defined not just by production, but by the lasting positive change we create.

  • We prioritised safety and health, hosting emergency readiness workshops for Ministry of Works engineers and conducting summer preparation workshops for our contractor companies. Our month-long Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign, featuring medical check-ups and informative lectures, empowered our female employees with knowledge and support.
  • We also embraced inclusivity, hosting the Bahrain Sports Deaf Association’s bowling league and organising a day of fun and games for the children of the Al Sanabel Orphan Care Society. Further, we welcomed students from prominent schools and universities, including the University of Bahrain and Applied Science University, providing them with invaluable insights into our operations and the vital role we play in Bahrain’s economy.
  • A Legacy of Impact and Inspiration By weaving our values and ethics into the fabric of our daily operations, Alba has become a catalyst for positive change in the community. Our unwavering commitment to CSR was recognised with the prestigious Al Bilad CSR Award 2024 (Grand Prize), a testament to our dedication to making a meaningful difference. As we look to the future, Alba remains steadfast in its pursuit of excellence in CSR, striving to create a legacy of impact that not only strengthens our business but also enriches the lives of those we serve.
