Re-defining mining, for a sustainable modern life
We count on smart innovation to bring an environmental, economic, and sustainable approach to the future of mining.
Smart innovation in mining protects the resources and nature while providing the raw materials that our modern society continuously needs.
Today, we are leading the mining technology industry, by providing the most accurate smart mining solutions. Our sensors allow mines around the world to use less water and less energy, while obtaining better and faster results. Moreover, we reduce waste rock dilution, tailings, and ore losses, significantly diminishing the environmental impact.
At IMA Engineering, we combine knowledge, creativity, and smart innovation, so that we can all take advantage of the innovative technologies. While bringing a revolution in mining, IMA makes sure to put people, their lives, our planet, and its resources first. Because we know that progress should go hand in hand with sustainability.
IMA sensors and solutions change perspectives in mining, making it more effective, while significantly reducing its long-term effects.
IMA solutions limit human interaction in dangerous environments. Thus, we contribute to increasing the safety for the mining companies’ employees.
We always act ethically and transparently in relation to customers, partners, communities, and authorities.
