FLS acquires South African manufacturing facility to strengthen its regional presence

PRESS RELEASE

FLSmidth & Co. A/S

2 June 2025, Copenhagen, Denmark



Leading mining technology and service supplier FLS has acquired Scott Specialized Rubber & Engineering (SSRE), a manufacturing company based in Pretoria, South Africa. SSRE manufactures and markets specialised, heavy-duty rubber products for a variety of industries, including for mineral processing. The acquisition of SSRE directly supports FLS’s CORE’26 strategy, which prioritises service growth through targeted investments. As the global leader in large grinding mills, FLS is committed to strengthening its service offering, particularly within mill liners, where capacity constraints have impacted certain regions.

This acquisition represents an important milestone in our consumables growth strategy. By introducing mid-sized regional capacity in mill liners, we are enhancing our ability to service mining customers across Africa with greater speed and reliability, says Alanas Kraujalis, Head of Consumables at FLS. “The new facility will establish local production of rubber and composite mill liners, shifting our supply model from outsourced to dedicated capacity. This transition will improve control, responsiveness and long-term resilience. Bringing manufacturing closer to our customers enables shorter lead times, more consistent service and strengthened aftermarket support”.

The terms of the transaction have not been disclosed. This announcement does not impact FLSmidth’s financial guidance for the full year 2025.
