McCloskey’s capabilities and technical solutions strengthen our ability to address diverse customer needs through complementary channels and offerings. We are confident that McCloskey will align well with Metso, and we are excited to welcome new colleagues to the Metso family,” says Markku Simula, President of the Aggregates Equipment business area of Metso.

The acquisition was announced in June 2019. The acquisition was funded, as previously announced, by a EUR 300 million term loan, which was drawn in September. McCloskey will be reported in Metso’s Minerals segment as of Q4 2019.
