Epiroc Celebrates Innovation with Awards


Epiroc, a leading productivity and sustainability partner for the mining and construction industries, recognizes exceptional collaboration with a customer on battery-electric vehicles, a revolutionary automatic bit changer, and an internal program fostering innovation, with three annual awards.

The United in Performance Award, which honors exceptional customer collaboration, was presented to a team at Epiroc’s Underground division as well as to customer and strategic partner Assmang Black Rock Mine in South Africa, for their outstanding collaboration to resolve challenges and successfully introduce battery electric vehicles in a production environment. The Inspired by Innovation Award, which honors Epiroc’s most innovative technical development that has had a proven commercial success, was presented to a team at Epiroc’s Surface division that developed the Automatic Bit Changer (ABC), a revolutionary product that strengthens safety for operators by replacing manual changing of drill bits on Pit Viper blasthole drill rigs with an automatic solution. Finally, the Dare to Think New Award, which gets its name from Epiroc’s vision, was presented to Sisirnath Sangireddy, Global Innovation Enabler and the founder and driver of the Foster program, an employee-driven Epiroc program to share innovation ideas.

“All the award winners represent the outstanding innovative mindset that is a key to Epiroc’s and our customers’ success. Throughout the organization, we keep focusing on providing our customers with the best solutions to boost their safety and productivity, while lowering their emissions and total cost of operation. Congratulations to the winners!” said Helena Hedblom, Epiroc’s President and CEO.
