Actions for operational excellence in 2025
In 2025, Epiroc continued to strengthen its foundation for profitable growth through efficiency and agility across its global operations. Focus was mitigating the impact of tariffs, which required proactive measures to protect competitiveness. The company optimized logistics and distribution flows, leveraged its global manufacturing footprint, and explored alternative suppliers, including steel sourcing, to reduce cost pressures. Tariff impacts and pricing were discussed with customers, and joint mitigating actions were implemented where needed.
Epiroc further focused on optimizing logistics and distribution flows, leveraging its global manufacturing footprint, and consolidating production sites to achieve economies of scale. Key actions included moving a tools manufacturing site from Canada to Mexico (expected to be finalized in 2027), investing in a new global equipment hub in Nashik, India, and consolidating customer centers. Epiroc also discontinued non-strategic product lines.
Efficiency measures were implemented and yielded positive results toward the end of the year, especially within Tools & Attachments. The introduction of two Business Areas; Equipment & Service and Tools & Attachments, further enhanced organizational agility, enabling faster decision-making and improved global reach.
Towards the end of the year, Epiroc successfully completed the move of the Essen manufacturing site in Germany, marking a major milestone in our strategic consolidation of European hydraulic attachments operations. Announced in November 2023, this initiative progressed as planned, with Kalmar, Sweden, now firmly established as our central hub for breaker production. Enhanced automation and a strengthened team have positioned the site to deliver combined production capacity with greater efficiency and resilience.
