Constellium SE (CSTM - Free Report) continues to gain momentum, with the Aerospace & Transportation segment playing an important role in driving its overall growth. The segment’s shipments totaled 207,000 metric tons in 2025, supported by a strong demand environment.
Revenues from the segment increased 8% to nearly $2 billion in the year, supported by increased shipments and metal prices.

Rising aluminum prices, driven by geopolitical tensions between Israel and Iran, have been supporting domestic producers like Constellium. Disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, a key Middle Eastern shipping route, have tightened regional supply. As a result, global aluminum prices have increased, benefiting major industry players such as Constellium.
Also, the company is witnessing solid momentum in its Packaging & Automotive Rolled Products segment. The segment’s shipments increased 6% year over year to 1,086,000 metric tons in 2025, supported by a robust demand environment.
Though weaker aerospace volumes remain a concern for the Aerospace & Transportation segment, solid demand and increased shipment of products are fueling steady growth for this segment.
