Saving resources by outsourcing maintenance<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Kopar's maintenance engineers travel to Norway once a year to make sure that the machinery at Boliden's zinc smelter in Odda is working and the process running as intended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The long-term maintenance agreement covers needs assessment, annual servicing and parts as needed. The turnkey maintenance service ensures\nthat staff in Odda can focus on\nwhat they do best: producing zinc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boliden Odda and Kopar first started working together around ten years ago. Kopar has supplied the smelter with mechanical material handling machinery and various kinds of storage systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Odda's reasons for outsourcing maintenance were financial. And since Kopar supplied the machinery, they also know it better than anyone else. Getting parts is easy.<\/p>\n\n\n

\"All the systems we have bought from Kopar have been state of the art, and we have had very few problems with them. Even if a machine malfunctions, Kopar's engineers fix it straight away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have been extremely happy with Kopar taking care of all aspects of maintenance and freeing us from the responsibility.\"<\/p>\nKjell Kr\u00e5kevik<\/strong>, Boliden Odda's Roaster Maintenance Manager<\/mark><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
