| Sudbury Mining Products
Ltd. was incorporated in 1987 by Robert Kaven and Paavo Liukko
to provide products and services to the mining industry. The first
product supplied to mines and mining equipment manufacturers was
Hydra Wrap, a spiral protective wrap for hydraulic hoses
manufactured by SMP on a cutter designed and fabricated in-house. The Bijur line of continuous automatic lubrication systems was added to our product offering in 1991. SMP quickly became an industry leader in the supply of lubrication solutions in all facets of industry. In 1994, recognizing the need for an alternative to oil lubrication for pneumatic drills in underground workplaces, we developed the Hal grease lubrication system. The Hal system greatly reduces oil mist in the atmosphere surrounding the worker, resulting in a healthier and safer working environment.
After extensive testing at INCO’s South Mine, Hal lubrication
became the standard at all of INCO’s Ontario Division mines. It has
since been adopted at Falconbridge Sudbury Operations as well as
INCO’s Manitoba Division and is being introduced into many other
mines in Canada and the United States.
