What Siebtechnik Tema does

Siebtechnik Tema, legally SIEBTECHNIK GmbH, is a German-headquartered OEM and system supplier specializing in solid-liquid separation and the processing of bulk materials. Founded in 1922 and operating for over 100 years, the company designs and manufactures decanter centrifuges (DZ 7, SHORTBOWL), sieve screw centrifuges (CONTURBEX H700 / CX-1500), pusher centrifuges (SHS), screening machines (elliptical vibrating screens with STReAM digital monitoring, Multiple-Deck-Sizer), jigging machines, sampling systems (Hammer Sampler HPN, downpipe samplers), and laboratory equipment (Air Jet Screen SLS, BULKINSPECTOR Gaspyknometer, robot-based sample preparation), with complementary thermal drying, conveying, and system-solution offerings. Manufacturing is concentrated at a multi-hall Technology Center in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany, with wholly-owned regional subsidiaries in the Netherlands, USA, China, Australia, France, Spain, and the United Kingdom.

The company monetizes primarily through one-time equipment sales (capex OEM), supplemented by recurring service revenue including preventive maintenance, modernization/retrofit, troubleshooting, and testing/trials, plus group-product distribution of complementary items such as STEINHAUS screening media and Multotec pumps/cyclones. Pricing is quote-based and customized per application, with multi-year contracts typical for industrial B2B customers. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales with specialist on-site/remote consultation, supported by a trade-show-heavy marketing mix and a website-led top-of-funnel.

SIEBTECHNIK TEMA serves a diversified vertical base including battery materials (lithium processing), fertilizers, food and dairy, inorganic salts, minerals and mining (including tailings), organic chemicals, polymers and bio-polymers, and recycling/water treatment (Zero Liquid Discharge). Key strategic partners include COMI CONDOR (lithium) and Multotec (tailings plants), and the company was awarded a 2025 EcoVadis Silver Medal, placing it in the top 10% of companies rated globally on sustainability. Ownership is private and family-controlled within a larger group structure.
