The Swedish group will acquire the French supplier, which serves customers in more than 70 countries and posted revenues of around EUR 31 million over the last twelve months.
Epiroc‘s next step in mining is not a new drill rig but a parts counter. The Stockholm-based group has agreed to acquire Aramine SAS, a supplier of spare parts and related services for underground mining based in Aix-en-Provence, in the south of France.
Aramine has more than fifty years in the business, around 65 employees and customers in over 70 countries. Alongside a broad range of spare parts, it remanufactures components and rebuilds complete machines. In the twelve months to 30 September 2026, its revenues were around EUR 31 million, or about SEK 340 million.
Where the margin sits in an underground fleet
The logic is aftermarket. Underground loaders, trucks and drill rigs often work well beyond their first life, and the money that keeps them running goes into wear parts, rebuilt components and overhauls. By adding a specialist that already supports mixed fleets in dozens of countries, Epiroc extends its reach into that service work.
“With this acquisition, Epiroc will extend its reach and further strengthen its capability to provide mining customers around the world with aftermarket parts and services. We are looking forward to welcoming the strong team at Aramine to Epiroc.”ù
Said Helena Hedblom, Epiroc’s President and CEO.
For mine operators, the practical question is what happens to supply and pricing once an independent parts specialist joins an OEM. The announcement does not address it, but the deal places Aramine inside Epiroc’s Equipment & Service business area, with revenues booked under the Service stream, which suggests the business will keep its parts and rebuild focus.
The machines stay out of the deal
One part of Aramine is not changing hands. On 1 October 2026, the company created ARAMAC, a separate business dedicated to underground mining equipment, and that unit is not included in the acquisition. Epiroc is buying the parts and services activity, not a machine builder.
Completion is expected in the fourth quarter of 2026. Epiroc noted that the transaction does not trigger a disclosure obligation under the EU Market Abuse Regulation. For scale, the group reported revenues of around SEK 62 billion in 2025, against Aramine’s SEK 340 million.
