Metso has strengthened its presence in the aggregates market globally with 14 new distribution agreements signed during 2017.


These new agreements further expand the coverage of 6934 Metso's crushing and screening offering for the construction industry and include markets new to the firm such as Qatar, Morocco and Papua New Guinea.

"Developing a global distribution community is one of the strategic focus areas within Metso's Aggregates business. We build strategic partnerships which, in cooperation with our product and service development teams,

will shape Metso's future offering and create the best possible value for our customers," said Markku Simula, head of aggregates business at Metso.

The distribution model has been developed with the best-in-class channel partners, according to the firm. By partnering with top distributors, Metso is improving its presence in its traditional core markets, as well as in new areas.

Distributors provide support for customers both in equipment and services. Metso's global aggregates community has currently well over 100 official distributors.

"We are constantly looking for new, best-in-class channel partners as well as developing the performance of our existing community. We are particularly interested in joining forces with distributors who are eager to develop further their service capabilities," said Adrian Wood, head of Global Aggregates Distribution at Metso.
