Crushing Tigers

What Crushing Tigers does

Crushing Tigers is a privately held, authorized distributor of high-performance aggregate machinery and equipment, founded in 2011 and headquartered in Austin, Texas. The company distributes products from nine leading global brands — Sandvik, EDGE Innovate, Rammer, Bohringer, Portafill, Strickland, SBM Mineral Processing, ACTech, and Excel Foundry & Machine — across crushing (jaw, cone, impact, VSI), screening and scalping, breaking (hydraulic hammers and pulverizers), washing, material handling, recycling (shredders, trommels, roll sizers), and portable concrete batch plants. The portfolio covers the full aggregate production workflow from raw material reduction through concrete output, targeting mining/quarrying operators, construction and infrastructure contractors, recycling operations, and mid-market contractors and rental fleets primarily across the Southwestern and South-Central United States.

The business operates a multi-channel revenue model that combines one-time new equipment sales, pre-owned equipment resale (units listed from $20K to $935K), usage-based equipment rentals (monthly), transaction-based aftermarket parts (including Excel high-performance replacement parts for major crusher platforms), professional service and maintenance, equipment training (offered in English and Spanish), and equipment financing. Underlying technical content is provided by OEM partners — including Sandvik's Hydroset safety system, Rammer's Excellence Line with vibration dampening and automatic lubrication, EDGE's intelligent load sensing on the VS420 shredder, and ACTech's proprietary 800 Brinell Chrome alloy with tungsten carbide tile linings (claimed up to 16x wear life improvement). The company does not develop proprietary equipment but adds value through brand curation, configuration, parts inventory depth, financing access, and field service.

Crushing Tigers is co-led by founders Pat Doab (CEO) and Brian Costello (COO), who together contribute 50+ years of industry and engineering experience, supported by a 27+ person team across sales, service, aftermarket, account management, digital systems, and marketing. The company raised $20 million from Congruent Investment Partners in May 2022 and has since materially expanded its brand portfolio, adding SBM Mineral Processing, ACTech, and Excel Foundry & Machine as authorized distributors in 2025 alongside a substantial product launch program across VSI crushers and high-capacity portable concrete plants.

Broad incumbents

• Metso Corporation: Metso is a major global manufacturer of crushing, screening, and minerals processing equipment serving mining and aggregates. Metso's broad portfolio and direct sales/service model compete with both Crushing Tigers' branded equipment offerings and its Excel high-performance replacement parts business (which targets Metso/Nordberg crushers).
• Sandvik AB: Sandvik is the parent manufacturer of Crushing Tigers' largest product line (jaw, cone, and impact crushers, scalpers, and screens). While Sandvik is a key OEM partner, it also competes through its own direct sales force in some accounts and could shift distribution strategy, making it both a critical supplier and a structural risk vector.
• Astec Industries: Astec Industries is the parent of KPI-JCI, Johnson Crushers International, and Breaker Technology, providing a broad portfolio of aggregate and mining equipment. Astec competes in many of the same product categories as Crushing Tigers and operates through its own dealer network, serving as both a competitor and a benchmark for the distribution-led model.
• Caterpillar Inc. Caterpillar is the world's largest heavy equipment manufacturer with a significant presence in aggregate production equipment via its Cat Financial and dealer network. While Cat doesn't directly compete in mobile crushing/screening to the same degree as Sandvik or Metso, its crushing solutions and parts ecosystem compete for the same aggregate customer wallet.
• Terex Corporation: Terex Corporation is a global manufacturer of lifting and materials processing equipment including the Terex Finlay crushing and screening line. As a much larger incumbent with broader portfolio exposure, Terex competes in the same aggregate equipment category and operates its own dealer network that competes with Crushing Tigers for end-customer relationships.

Direct peers

• KPI-JCI & AMS (Astec Industries): KPI-JCI is a leading U.S.-based manufacturer of crushing, screening, and material handling equipment for aggregate, mining, and recycling. Its product portfolio and dealer-driven sales model closely mirror Crushing Tigers' go-to-market approach, and KPI-JCI equipment is a frequent substitute for Sandvik, Portafill, and ACTech offerings.
• Powerscreen: Powerscreen is one of the world's leading manufacturers of mobile crushing, screening, and conveying equipment for the aggregate and recycling industries. As a manufacturer-distributor model serving similar end customers (quarries, contractors, recyclers), Powerscreen operates both as an equipment brand Crushing Tigers competes against in resale and as a parallel distribution competitor in adjacent territories.
• McCloskey International: McCloskey International designs and manufactures mobile screening, crushing, washing, and recycling equipment. Like Crushing Tigers' Sandvik and Portafill lines, McCloskey serves aggregate producers and contractors with similar compact and mobile equipment, representing direct product overlap and dealer-channel competition.
• EDGE Innovate: EDGE Innovate manufactures material handling and recycling equipment including stackers, trommels, shredders, and picking stations — all major product categories carried by Crushing Tigers. As the OEM behind the Edge product line, EDGE is both a key partner and an adjacent competitor for recycling and material handling equipment sales.

Emerging players

• Superior Industries: Superior Industries designs and manufactures crushing, screening, and conveying equipment for aggregates, mining, and recycling markets. As a smaller but growing competitor, Superior's equipment lines overlap with Crushing Tigers' Sandvik, EDGE, and Portafill product ranges, particularly in cone crushers and material handling.
