Schenck Process is back in Southern Africa – rebranded as Qlar
From November 1st, 2024, Schenck Process is back on the market in Southern Africa. Now under the new name Qlar. Since rebranding to Qlar in May 2024, the German-headquartered bulk specialist has a strengthened focus on driving circular transformation in the key industries of cement, steel, chemicals and performance materials. The re-entry in Southern Africa is based on the ending non-compete agreement with Sandvik. After the market carve-out in 2022, every existing client of an installed Schenck Process solution in Southern Africa can now benefit from the aftermarket, spare parts and maintenance services of Qlar and new digitally enabled and sustainable Qlar solutions.
In May 2022, Schenck Process announced the sale of its Mining Business to Swedish engineering group Sandvik AB. This step also meant the temporary market exit in Southern Africa. Now, Schenck Process is back in the industries cement, steel, chemicals and performance materials under the new name Qlar.
