FLSmidth Company Description
Engineering and building materials company FLSmidth & Co. likes to cement a deal. The holding company, formerly FLS Industries, has reorganized and changed its name. FLSmidth supplies services, machinery, and equipment to cement and related mineral industries worldwide. Operations include making cement plant machinery and pneumatic ship unloaders. It also offers materials handling and air pollution control services. It sells fiber cement building materials (cladding and roofing materials) through subsidiary Dansk Eternit Holding. The company's 2006 merger with fellow Danish building materials and engineering company A/S Potagua turned the tables: Potagua was FLSmidth's controlling stakeholder.
