Helsinki/Finland – Metso has signed an agreement to acquire Jindex, a privately-owned Australian company specializing in valves and process flow control. Combining Metso’s extensive experience and offering in slurry handling, hydrocyclones and minerals processing equipment solutions with Jindex’s valve offering will further strengthen Metso’s capacity to provide more comprehensive slurry handling solutions for the mining industry.

“This acquisition is yet another important step in the development of Metso’s Pumps business line offering to bring us closer to being our customers’ lifecycle partner of choice. Flow and isolation control play a vital role in ensuring smooth slurry handling to maximize the productivity and efficiency of minerals processing plants. In the past, we have collaborated with Jindex on many customer projects and are now glad to welcome the Jindex experts to the Metso team. Jindex has extensive expertise and strong capabilities in valve technology and control equipment, as well as in many types of slurry valve projects, and thus their products complement our offering well,” says Tiago Oliveira, Head of Pumps business line at Metso.
