FLSmidth (FLS) has signed a comprehensive lifecycle agreement with Lloyds Metals and Energy Limited (LMEL) covering the full FLS equipment flowsheet, alongside plans to develop a state-of-the-art repair centre to enhance service speed and asset reliability.

This partnership builds on two years of prior orders and includes an on-site FLS team, bespoke maintenance, continuous upskilling, and consumables management to maximise uptime as LMEL scales its production and processing capacities.

The agreement reflects FLSmidth's ambition to deepen long-term customer relationships in India and supports LMEL's role as the operator of the country's single largest iron ore mine.

Both companies are committed to driving operational excellence and responsible development of India's mining industry through this lifecycle approach.
