The process is made mechanically using a foil rolling mill.
On Reynolds aluminum company website you'll find :Which side of Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil should I use, the shiny or the dull side?Actually, it makes no difference which side of the aluminum foil you useboth sides do the same fine job of cooking, freezing and storing food. The difference in appearance between dull and shiny is due to the foil manufacturing process. In the final rolling step, two layers of foil are passed through the rolling mill at the same time. The side coming in contact with the mill's highly polished steel rollers becomes shiny. The other side, not coming in contact with the heavy rollers, comes out with a dull or matte finish.
Aluminum foil is made by passing aluminum through a rolling mill. Manufacturers start with a large block several inches thick and several feet wide and long. This block is passed through a rolling mill and is repeatedly hot rolled until it is thin enough for the aluminum to be rolled. The roll is then passed along to another rolling mill and is cold rolled repeatedly until the desired thickness of foil is achieved. In the cold rolling process, two rolls of aluminum are rolled simultaneously to avoid any tearing that might result if a single thickness of aluminum was passed through the rollers. (That's why the foil we see has a "shiny" side and a "dull" side.) Following all this rolling, the aluminum is trimmed and cut to size, and then comes out in the form of the foil we know. Use the link below to see a short video of the process. It's worth the look.
The process of rolling metals into sheets is called (no surprise) rolling. The metal is passed through a rolling mill and is reduced in size in steps. The metal might be hot rolled or cold rolled, and the choice of process depends on the metal and on what the finished product needs to be like. In the case of aluminum foil, a block of aluminum is first hot rolled, and the metal is passed through the rolling mill a number of times until it is thin enough to be rolled and moved to a cold rolling mill. In the cold rolling mill, it goes through a number of roller sets until the desired thickness is achieved.

There is no discernible heat retention difference between the shiny or the dull side of aluminum foil. The shiny side is shiny because of the way foil is made. During the last pass through the rolling mill, a double thickness of foil is run between the rollers. The side of each sheet that comes in contact with the polished steel rollers comes out shiny. The other side has a matte finish.
Sutter's Mill ? or Stutter Mill ?
Yes, there is individual men's foil, men's team foil, individual woman's foil, and women's team foil.
Cooking foil is like regular aluminum foil. In summary, cooking foil and tin foil alike are good conductors of heat AND electricity.

yes Slaters Mill is really pronounced Slater Mill
'A mill' would be melin; 'to mill' is melino/malu.
