John Brotherson will lead the Australian company as general manager. Haver & Boecker Niagara combines the engineering expertise and product portfolios of Haver & Boecker’s three mineral processing technology manufacturers, based in Brazil, Canada and Germany, to provide customers around the world with shared innovative technology, more in-depth consultations, greater parts availability and better delivery times.

“With a new mineral processing focus on the Australian market and an exciting, new local team, we will ensure that we can serve our customers with spare parts availability, technical consultation, and the shared Niagara brand engineering knowledge,” said Karen Thompson, president of Haver & Boecker Niagara’s North American and Australian operations. “John’s years of experience and enthusiasm for the industry will help us establish the Haver & Boecker Niagara name across Australia.”

Brotherson brings 32 years of mining experience to his position, which enables him to connect with customers, understand their operation and recommend the right technology for their processes.
