Las Vegas, NV.- Freeport-McMoRan, one of the world’s top three copper producers, honored KSB with a Supplier Recognition Award at MINExpo International in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Erkki Kohtanen, KSB GIW, Inc.’s Vice President of Global Industrial Minerals and Dredging, accepted the award on behalf of the company.
Freeport-McMoRan, a leading international mining company specializing in copper, gold, and molybdenum, operates extensively in North and South America and the Grasberg minerals district in Indonesia. As a trusted pump supplier, KSB collaborates with Freeport-McMoRan in Indonesia to responsibly, reliably, and relentlessly supply the world with copper.
Jonathan Samuel, CEO and President of KSB GIW, Inc., remarked, “This reward is the customer’s recognition of the hard work and diligence of the teams at KSB GIW, Inc. and PT KSB Indonesia. Our willingness to put the customer first and look for ways to add value won us their business and this award. Thanks to everyone who invested their time, energy, and talents to support PT Freeport Indonesia. Our people are our best assets.”
MINExpo, the world’s largest mining trade show, is organized by the National Mining Association and held every four years in Las Vegas. Attendees can explore the latest advancements in mining and minerals processing technologies, as well as state-of-the-art machinery and equipment across various mining sectors. At this year’s MINExpo, KSB introduced two groundbreaking technologies: GIW® SLYsight and GIW® RAMSL. These innovations enable pump operators to make safe and precise adjustments, significantly enhancing operational efficiency and safety.
