Sandvik Acquires DSI Underground Joint Ventures, Rocbolt Technologies
Sandvik’s acquisition of DSI Underground closed on July 7, 2021. The acquisition included DSI’s ownership stake in four joint ventures Rocbolt Technologies based in China, South Africa, Mongolia, and Australia.
DSI Underground is a global leader in ground support and reinforcement products, systems, and solutions for the underground mining and tunneling industries.
On August 3, 2021, Sandvik signed and completed three agreements to acquire the joint venture partner’s (Jennmar) share of the Rocbolt Technologies JVs in China, South Africa, and Mongolia. Jennmar will continue to be a JV partner in Australia.
Rocbolt Technologies will be reported in the Ground Support Division of business area Sandvik Mining and Rock Solutions.
In 2020, DSI Underground had revenues of about EUR 4516 million (excluding the four joint ventures). The three JVs that will now be fully consolidated had revenues of around EUR $80 million in 2020.
Both parties have agreed not to disclose the purchase price.
