We have strengthened our global presence with the addition of a state-of-the-art facility in Wolfenbüttel, Germany.”
AECI Mining is exhibiting at the 13th EFEE World Conference on Explosives and Blasting at the ICE Kraków Congress Centre. Delegates can visit the AECI Mining team at Stand 50, where they will showcase their latest innovations and engage with industry peers and partners.
At the centre of this year’s showcase is a significant milestone in the company’s global journey: the commissioning of a new emulsifier and coatings manufacturing facility in Wolfenbüttel, Germany. For the first time, AECI is producing emulsifiers and coatings in Europe. This strategic shift enables the business to better serve its international customer base with increased proximity, reliability, and responsiveness.
Previously, emulsifier and coatings production was centralised at AECI’s flagship Umbogintwini (Umbog) plant in South Africa, with products exported worldwide. The addition of the Wolfenbüttel site marks a significant expansion of AECI Mining’s global footprint, strengthening its ability to meet customer needs across Europe and beyond.
