What Superior Industries does

Superior Industries, Inc. is a private US-based manufacturer founded in 1972 and headquartered in Morris, Minnesota, that engineers and produces dry bulk processing and handling equipment for aggregate, mining, C&D recycling, energy, industrial minerals, marine, and other industrial end markets. The company's product portfolio spans crushing equipment (Liberty jaw crushers, Patriot/Dakota/Endeavor cone crushers, Sentry horizontal shaft impactors, and acquired Cemco vertical shaft impactors), screening equipment (Anthem inclined screens, Guardian horizontal screens, Intrepid vibrating grizzly feeders, Independence high-frequency screens), washing and classifying equipment (Aggredry dewatering washers, Alliance low water washers, Helix cyclones, Spirit sand plants, classifying tanks, density sizers), and material handling equipment (TeleStacker radial telescopic conveyors, RazerTail truck unloaders, and full conveyor component lines including idlers, pulleys, belt cleaners, and take-ups). These products integrate through the Fusion modular platform architecture for turnkey and portable plant deployments, supported by the Vantage conveyor monitoring and automation system. The portfolio is protected by an extensive patent estate spanning 30+ inventions with multi-jurisdictional coverage in the US, Canada, Australia, UK, EU, China, South Africa, Brazil, and Mexico.

The company operates through an authorized dealer network across North America combined with direct sales support from 13+ regional offices spanning the US, Canada (Miramichi, New Brunswick), and Brazil (Rafard manufacturing plus Parauapebas and São Luís field offices). Manufacturing is concentrated across five facilities in Morris MN, Columbus NE, Loganville GA, Belen NM (acquired 2023 with CEMCO), and Rafard, Brazil. Revenue derives primarily from hardware sales of capital equipment, supplemented by replacement parts, maintenance services, and technical support through the dealer network and a 24/7/365 product support hotline. The OptimizeU on-demand training platform extends post-sale customer engagement. Pricing is quote-based through the dealer channel with no public pricing listed.

In October 2023 Superior Industries completed the acquisition of CEMCO, Inc., a Belen, New Mexico-based VSI crusher manufacturer, boosting portable plant production capacity by 40% and adding vertical shaft impact crushing to the product lineup. In June 2026 the company expanded its partnership with Commonwealth Equipment to deepen aftermarket parts and service coverage in the North Mid-Atlantic region. The company is led by CEO Majdi b. Abulaban and was founded by Neil Schmidgall, and remains privately held with no disclosed parent company or institutional investor.

Product overview

Superior Industries manufactures a comprehensive portfolio of dry bulk processing and handling equipment and systems for aggregate, mining, recycling, construction, and industrial mineral applications. The product lineup is organized around core processing categories: crushing equipment (Liberty® Jaw Crushers, Patriot®/Dakota®/Endeavor® Cone Crushers, Sentry® HSI, and acquired Cemco® VSI), screening equipment (Anthem® Inclined Screens, Guardian® Horizontal Screens, Intrepid® Vibrating Grizzly Feeders, Independence® High Frequency Screens), washing and classifying equipment (Helix® Cyclones, Aggredry® Dewatering Washers, Alliance® Low Water Washers, Spirit® Sand Plants, Classifying Tanks, Density Sizers), and complete plant systems (Fusion® Modular Platforms, Portable Plants, Turnkey Plants). The conveying portfolio centers on TeleStacker® Radial Telescopic Conveyors complemented by truck unloaders (RazerTail®) and conveyor components (idlers, pulleys, belt cleaners). These products integrate through the Fusion® modular platform architecture and are supported by Vantage® conveyor monitoring for automation. The company operates as a single unified equipment manufacturer rather than a software platform company.
