Description

Aluminum foil is a thin sheet made from aluminum metal. It is commonly used in cooking and food storage.

Aluminum foil was first produced in the early 20th century as a lightweight alternative to tin foil.
The first commercial production began around 1910 in Switzerland.
Aluminum foil quickly became popular for packaging, especially in the food industry.
Its ability to preserve freshness and protect against light, oxygen, and moisture made it valuable.
During World War I and II, aluminum foil was widely used for medical and military purposes.
Advances in manufacturing allowed thinner and more flexible aluminum foil production.
Today, aluminum foil is a common household and industrial material worldwide.
