Marakon, a Finnish expert in hydraulic breakers and attachments, has entered into a partnership with the Swedish mining and construction equipment supplier Epiroc. Under the agreement, Marakon will become an authorized distributor of Epiroc hydraulic breakers and attachments in Finland and will be responsible for nationwide service and spare parts support.
Serving customers in approximately 150 countries, Epiroc is one of the world’s leading suppliers of mining and infrastructure technology. The company employs around 19,000 people globally, and its hydraulic breakers are widely used in demanding mining, demolition, and construction applications. Going forward, Marakon will service Epiroc breakers efficiently through its service network of eight locations across Finland.
“Partnering with Epiroc strengthens our ability to offer customers a competitive overall solution that combines high-quality products with strong local service. Our service operations are based in key locations, enabling fast maintenance and good spare parts availability throughout Finland. This allows us to further develop Epiroc breaker service and spare parts support into an even more comprehensive offering,” says Jyrki Hyyrönmäki, Business Director at Marakon.
Customers benefit from local service and improved availability
Marakon has more than 40 years of experience in the sales of hydraulic attachments and in providing full lifecycle support. In Finland, the company is particularly well known for its specialist expertise in hydraulic breaker service and technical know-how.
“Finland is an important market for us, and we want to strengthen our position there in a systematic and long-term manner. Marakon’s strong local expertise and market knowledge make it an excellent partner for us. This cooperation will improve the availability of our products and ensure high-quality service and spare parts support in Finland,” says Kimmo Alakoski, Territory Manager at Epiroc.
Through this partnership, Marakon expands its offering and strengthens its role as a brand-independent expert. For customers, this means a broader product and service portfolio as well as the necessary support throughout the entire lifecycle of their equipment.
“It is important to us to provide the solution that best fits the customer’s needs. Going forward, we will be able to respond even better to the requirements of different customer groups,” Hyyrönmäki adds.
Marakon will immediately begin expanding its product range with Epiroc equipment. Service and spare parts support will be available from May onwards.
In addition to its Lahti service center, Marakon provides Epiroc service through authorized service partners in Järvenpää, Kajaani, Korsholm, Kuopio, Oulu, Tampere, and Turku.
