Metso Outotec rebrands as simply ‘Metso’

The Metso Outotec name is no more, as the company’s board of directors opted to change the name to Metso Corp.

Metso says the Outotec name will continue as a brand for some technologies and products.

“After the successful integration of Metso and Outotec, we will focus on growing a strong unified Metso company and brand,” says Pekka Vauramo, president and CEO of Metso. “We have combined two valuable companies into one strong Metso. Our focus is clear: we continue enabling sustainable modern life and transforming the industry with a clear strategy and strong culture, supported by a name that is short yet established and well recognized among all our stakeholders. Services are an extremely important part of our business, requiring a strong name.”

In 2019, Metso came to an agreement with Outotec on a merger deal that created a combined company serving the aggregate, minerals and metals industries. The combined company, comprising Metso Minerals and Outotec but excluding Metso Flow Control, was called Metso Outotec.
