Following the ongoing recovery in industry in general as well as in mining activities, where crushing equipment is of major importance, Sandvik decided to modernize and extend their manufacturing and servicing capabilities at their Svedala plant
Svedala, Sweden – Sandvik Mining and Construction is expanding its manufacturing site of crushing equipment in Svedala and investing SEK 300 million in a new production plant. The nearly 6,000 square meter production plant will be completed during early 2012. The plant will be fitted with the most modern production equipment for manufacturing key components for Sandvik’s crushers, which are assembled not only in Svedala, but also in other countries.
The investment follows a decision earlier this year to also build a new distribution center in Svedala for spare parts for the European market.
Gert Sköld, CFO and Vice President, Sandvik Mining and Construction, comments: “Sandvik Mining and Construction has in recent years consolidated manufacturing to larger and highly efficient plants. In all locations in which we have manufacturing, it must be of world class. This applies to the highest degree to our facility in Svedala, where we also have our product development center for crushing technology,”
