The ME Elecmetal study, “Perceptions and Reflections,” conducted in April 2024, delves into the key attributes most frequently mentioned by grinding media customers. While sustainability was not initially a top-of-mind factor, it has increasingly gained relevance in the mining industry.
The study highlights that sustainability is becoming a mainstream concern and will be a critical focus over the next five years, particularly as companies look toward 2030. Achieving sustainability goals is seen as a shared responsibility, requiring collaboration across three key areas: (1) corporate commitment, (2) sustainable supply chain practices, and (3) strong governmental support.
In alignment with these trends, ME Elecmetal has already made significant strides in creating environmentally friendly products and services. The company’s Sustainability Strategy, built around four key pillars, drives the development of Integral Solutions and recent innovations like the CO2 Lite grinding ball. Additionally, ME Elecmetal offers a range of Value Added Engineering Services (VAES), further enhancing its commitment to sustainable mining solutions.
