Epiroc provides sustainable and safe equipment like drill rigs, rock excavation and construction equipment, and tools for surface and underground applications with world-class service support. They are known to be the productivity partner for mining, infrastructure and natural resources industries. Mandy Che, Managing Director, Epiroc Mining India, tells us briefly about the company culture.

At EXCON: It is really exciting to meet with so many customers, partners and it was great interacting together.

On display: Considering the space constraints, we have come up with an efficient design that gloriously highlights our numerous hydraulic attachment tools and some rock drilling tools. These offerings are high on productivity and performance.

Demand drivers: Now is the right time for our business to reach new heights with the Indian policies and government supporting the infrastructure and mining segments.

Addressing customer needs: Service is one of the greatest strengths of our company. We strive to provide a superior service experience to all our customers – either through our offices or through our partners’ offices.

In the pipeline: We are planning to have more production lines in India apart from the existing ones in Nashik and Hyderabad, and have an R&D centre in Hyderabad with 385 people working there. It is a big facility that supports not only requirements in India but globally as well.

Sustainability: Epiroc group has announced our sustainability goals for 2030 – we are aiming to halve CO2 emissions by 2030, from our own operations, and also from our customer’s operations who are using our machine. We also aim to use 90 per cent renewable energy in own operations. Epiroc Group is strongly committed to achieving the sustainability goals for people and planet.

Embracing diversity: We strongly promote inclusion and diversity and aim to double the women employees in operational roles by 2030. I see a great female talent pool from India with exorbitant potential, which will bring more productivity in the company.
