Markku Simula, President, Metso’s Aggregates business area, said that the acquisition of Diamond Z allowed the company to, “extend our offering in the growing infrastructure recycling equipment market,” and he highlighted the Diamond Z mobile grinders portfolio as, “a great addition to our Materials Processing Products offering.”

Simula said that the purchase of Screen Machine Industries enhances the company’s mobile crushing and screening offering.

The value of the transaction is not disclosed, and it has no material impact on Metso’s finances.
