Metso Outotec has received recognition as the leading supplier in the Mining Suppliers’ Ranking conducted by Phibrand in Chile. In the winning categories, Metso Outotec was nominated under the name Metso, as the survey was initiated in May 2020, prior to the merger of Metso Minerals and Outotec on July 1, 2020. These categories include Crushers, Mills and Plant Maintenance as well as the highest recognition in the ranking, the Best Performing International Supplier.

“This recognition makes us happy and this is truly a moment of pride for us, as the winners are nominated by the customers themselves in a very competitive, high-end market. We want to continue improving and delivering the best service to our customers by knowing their needs and innovating solutions,” says Eduardo Nilo, President of Metso Outotec’s South America market area and notes that the circumstances have been unusual this year.
“We are experiencing a historic year for several reasons – we have taken a new step of growth by becoming Metso Outotec, and the pandemic has led us to develop new, safer ways to operate in factories and service centers as well as in the field. I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their exceptional work,” he concludes.
The Mining Suppliers’ Ranking is a globally unique survey in the mining industry. It gives an outlook on how suppliers are positioned in the Chilean market. Metso Outotec has a strong presence in the whole South American market with six service centers, four factories, four distribution centers, a foundry and a performance center established in 2019 to focus on remote monitoring.
