Weir has entered into a strategic cooperation agreement with MINEXXT, Inc., to strengthen its global leadership in thickened and paste tailings solutions.

Weir will integrate MINEXXT’s cutting-edge thickening technology into its global tailings portfolio. This technology is engineered to deliver high-performance thickened and paste tailings solutions, enhancing Weir’s ability to collaboratively meet the evolving needs of its customers with precision and confidence.
By combining Weir’s global reach and engineering excellence with MINEXXT’s specialised technology, the collaboration reflects a shared commitment to accelerate the transition to smarter, more sustainable tailings management.
