Element and Lutze partnership strengthens aggregates industry support in Central Europe
The agreement gives German quarrying, demolition, and recycling operators local access to Element wear and spare parts.
Element Mining and Construction Oy is expanding its aggregates business in Europe and has appointed Lutze Process Germany GmbH, part of the Lutze Group, as an official distributor of Element wear and spare parts in Germany. The appointment establishes Element’s presence in one of Europe’s largest aggregates markets and gives German quarrying, demolition and recycling operators local access to the company’s aftermarket portfolio.
Element has supplied German customers directly from Finland since 2016. Under the agreement, ordering, application advice and field service transfer to Lutze Process Germany’s nationwide organization, while engineering and manufacturing support remain with Element in Tampere. The company selected a distribution route rather than a direct sales organization in order to give customers local service from the outset.
This partnership is an important step in expanding Element’s aggregates business in Central Europe. Through this partnership, customers across the region will have access to our complete portfolio of crusher wear and spare parts as well as slurry handling solutions, backed by Lutze’s local expertise, service organization, and long-standing industry presence.
