DSI Underground rebrands as Sandvik at MINExpo INTERNATIONAL® 2024

DSI Underground has officially rebranded as Sandvik at MINExpo INTERNATIONAL® 2024, solidifying a unification of the industry’s leading full-service, end-to-end provider of equipment and consumables to underground mining and tunneling.

Sandvik announced in December 2020 that it would acquire DSI Underground, and the acquisition was completed in July 2021. Today’s milestone reinforces Sandvik’s ability to drive safety and productivity across the full underground cycle.

“Over the years DSI Underground steadily strengthened its position as the industry leader in underground safety solutions,” said Martin Rier, President of Ground Support at Sandvik Mining and Rock Solutions. “Our acquisition by Sandvik unlocked new potential, providing access to R&D resources, a global service network and a wealth of end-to-end mining and tunneling expertise. It has enhanced our market presence and expanded our abilities to deliver even more value to our customers.”

DSI Underground is now fully integrated and rebranded as Sandvik in all aspects of its activities, including workwear, products and facilities.

“Our rebranding as Sandvik reflects our commitment to innovation and transforming safety underground, but it will be business as usual for our valued customers,” Rier said. “Our comprehensive product portfolio and unwavering commitment remain unchanged. Our market presence is now as Sandvik, but existing customer systems and processes will remain, and our customers will continue to work with the same points of contact they trust.

“We will continue to manufacture the most extensive range of advanced ground support solutions and systems locally, delivering the same high-quality products and providing the same unparalleled support our customers have always counted on. We have big ambitions for product development and can’t wait to share these with our customers in the near future.”
