About Us
Inversiones Aguas Blancas – IAB is a Chilean company with Chinese capital, established in 2001, and part of the Rockcheck Tewoo Corporation – RTC economic group.
IAB aims to break the paradigm regarding Chinese companies that have entered the Chilean mining industry without achieving a foothold due to various factors: cultural, linguistic, quality control, R&D, after-sales services, and the operation of supplier enrollment systems such as Red Negocios and Sicep.
Considering these barriers, as well as the importance and size of the domestic mining market, IAB-RTC’s senior management has formed a national administration and operation staffed by local mining talent. The IAB team is comprised of specialized national professionals and technicians who enable us to provide the best technical assistance and responsiveness to our clients.
Our main strategic business units are:
- Grinding balls and rods
- Drilling steels
- Cathodes, anodes, and accessories
- Equipment, machinery, and supplies
- Minerals
Business Units
Our innovative business model integrates an efficient manufacturing, import, storage, logistics, recycling, and/or reuse chain, which translates into lower costs and greater productivity for our customers’ operations.
With this background, we hope that our portfolio of world-class products and services will become a new and competitive alternative for the mining industry in Chile and Latin America.
