Sandvik reported a strong start to 2026, with total order intake up 12% to SEK 36.8 billion and revenues up 5% to SEK 30.7 billion, translating to 23% organic order growth and 15% organic revenue growth.

Across its businesses, Sandvik saw robust, broad-based demand, led by mining where organic orders grew 22% and automation and digital solutions such as AutoMine® and My Sandvik Geo gained traction. Rock Processing returned to growth in equipment on a recovering infrastructure market, while Machining posted exceptional 28% organic order growth, helped by strong aerospace, defense and medical demand and a rally in tungsten prices that boosted its vertically integrated powder business.

The newly carved-out Intelligent Manufacturing unit also delivered 11% organic order and revenue growth, with high-double-digit subscription expansion as Sandvik shifts its industrial software model toward recurring revenue. Strategic acquisitions in simulation, ultra-precision diamond tools and software resellers, together with new product launches in drilling, crushing and digital services, underscore management’s push to reinforce market leadership and build a more resilient, higher-margin portfolio amid an uncertain macro backdrop.
