TEMA Isenmann

What TEMA Isenmann does

TEMA Isenmann, Inc. is a U.S.-headquartered manufacturer of polyurethane screening media and wear protection systems serving mining, aggregate, industrial, and concrete customers across North America. Operating from Lexington, Kentucky with a satellite warehouse in California, the company is the North American subsidiary of the Tema Group (part of the Stafag Group of 62 companies worldwide) and claims more than three decades of American-made polyurethane screening production. Its product portfolio centers on open-cast polyurethane screens and injection-molded polyurethane modular panels (including the trademarked WS 85 modular panels), supplemented by the patented WS 2.10 magnetic wear liner system — a no-bolt, no-glue, no-weld installation using high-intensity rare earth magnets — and complementary accessories such as rail and girder fastening systems, flood/spray nozzles, and stroke gauges. The company also distributes the full Multotec process equipment and wedgewire range in North America under an exclusive arrangement, and applies custom engineering to fit OEM equipment across wet and dry screening, dewatering, and wear-protection applications.

The underlying technology is grounded in a proprietary hot open-cast polyurethane process intended to enhance molecular cross-linking for superior wear life, paired with modular panel architectures (Pin & Leg, Saddle Top Rail, Flex-A-Thon, TeePee 3D, Polypunch, dual-durometer) designed to reduce blinding and extend changeover intervals. The business model is hardware sales through a hybrid go-to-market: direct sales personnel and regional sales representatives covering the U.S., Canada and Mexico, layered with a network of regional dealers and the Multotec distribution channel. Pricing is quote-based and application-specific, with free cost-saving proposals offered to prospects. Quantified customer outcomes reported by the company include at least 2x wear life versus injection-molded alternatives in aggressive applications and conversion cases where customers moved from daily to zero screen changes across multiple plants. The company has not disclosed revenue, funding, or institutional ownership, and exhibits no disclosed AI/ML capabilities.

TEMA Isenmann's strategic positioning rests on three reinforcing layers: (1) proprietary, patented products (WS 2.10 magnetic system, WS 85 trademark, Saddle Top Rail patent); (2) North American reach through direct sales plus a multi-dealer channel and the Multotec distribution franchise; and (3) vertical focus on the mining and aggregate industries with adjacent extensions into industrial and concrete markets. The combination supports an efficient, application-engineered screening ecosystem for plants seeking to reduce downtime, lower labor, and minimize welding-related safety exposure in confined environments.

Core offering

TEMA Isenmann manufactures and markets polyurethane screening media and wear protection systems for the mining, aggregate, and industrial sectors. The company produces open-cast and injection molded polyurethane screen panels, patented WS 2.10 magnetic wear liners, and modular fastening systems, while also distributing Multotec process equipment such as trommel screens, sieve bends, and wedgewire products across North America.

Product overview

TEMA ISENMANN is a manufacturer of American-made polyurethane screening products and systems for the mining and aggregate industries. The product portfolio centers on two primary manufacturing methods—open-cast polyurethane (premium, enhanced molecular cross-linking for superior wear life) and injection molded polyurethane (cost-effective for fine screening)—supplemented by its proprietary patented WS 2.10 magnetic wear liner system (no-bolt, no-glue, no-weld magnetic attachment) and distributed Multotec products (wedgewire, trommel screens, sieve bends). These core products are complemented by fastening systems (boltdown, tension, pin & leg, modular rail systems) and accessories (flood/spray nozzles, stroke gauges), all designed to work together as an integrated screening solution ecosystem.
