Empowering the future of mining

At FLS, our mission is to transform the mining industry through innovation and sustainability. With over 140 years of experience, we are a global leader, providing the technology, knowledge, and services that empower miners to meet growing demands while minimizing environmental impact.

A legacy of innovation

Since our founding in 1882, FLS has evolved from a local supplier of machinery to a global leader in full flowsheet technology. Originally focused on cement, we expanded into mining, where we now lead with solutions designed for efficiency and sustainability. As the industry faces new challenges, FLS remains committed to advancing responsible mining practices worldwide.

Global economic development and the green transition increase the demand for minerals. Reducing the environmental impact from the production of these materials is an imperative. As a sustainability partner for our customers, we have a tremendous responsibility to drive progress.

Mining for a sustainable world

Mining is crucial to the global energy transition. As the world moves towards net-zero emissions, we will see an extraordinary increase in the demand for electric vehicles and renewable power generation capacity. Similarly, demand for the key minerals needed for the green transition – copper, lithium, nickel cobalt and rare-earth minerals – will grow significantly in the next two decades. The industry has an obligation to look to the future in a sustainable manner.
