SANDVIKEN, Sweden, May 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Sandvik has signed an agreement to acquire the mining related business of Schenck Process Group (SP Mining). SP Mining is one of the market leaders in screening, feeding and screening media solutions in the industry. The company will be reported in Stationary Crushing and Screening, a division in Sandvik Rock Processing Solutions (SRP).
"I am pleased that we continue to execute on our shift to growth strategy by expanding our core offering in a profitable niche, as well as strengthening the aftermarket share within rock processing.
