“I am glad that the strong team at Sautec is joining Epiroc,” said Helena Hedblom, Epiroc’s Senior Executive Vice President Mining and Infrastructure. “It is important as we expand our presence in the Baltic region.”
The purchase price is not material relative to Epiroc’s market capitalisation and is not disclosed.
